There is no accurate way to know for sure, but it is know that around 800,000 people (just under) may suffer with eating disorders in general. The statistic states that 40% have bulimia, 10% have anorexia and the other 50% have EDNOS or an unspecified or unknown eating disorder. Adding some maths to that, we can probably estimate that there'll be roughly 320,000 bulimia sufferers in the UK.

About one in 100 of teenage girls suffer from eating problems. But some of them have them in a very small way.

But the older you get, the more people tend to get eating problems. One in 50 young women and one in 500 young men suffer from anorexia and bulimia.
