'Cancer weight gain led to my eating disorder'

An East Sussex man who was "in a very dark place" after putting on weight during cancer treatment has advised others to ask for help.

Jude Solley, from Seaford, said he developed an eating disorder after treatment for his leukaemia led to weight gain.

The 20-year-old backed the charity Teenage Cancer Trust's campaign to raise awareness of the negative impact treatment could have on body image.

"My advice to people with cancer who are struggling with body image issues is to try to remember that it's only temporary, you'll get back to normal," Mr Solley said.
