An inpatient eating disorder unit has been temporarily closed because of staff shortages. The Phoenix Centre, in Fulbourn near Cambridge, is a specialist regional unit that treats 13 to 18-year-olds with severe eating disorders. Five patients have been transferred to "alternative accommodation" to continue their treatment, it said. The facility added it was "committed to resuming services at the unit as soon as it is practical and safe to do so".
