Name: Chloe Boyd
Age: 17
Year of the Fix: 2015
Location: Angus, Aberdeenshire
Campaign: To urge people not to judge others based on appearances

My team and I worry that people often judge others based on their appearance. They focus on the superficial qualities, rather than getting to know someone and considering what’s beneath the surface.

This negative stereotyping can lead to discrimination. We know young people who have experienced discrimination based on their appearance and we feel it’s time to do something about it.

With Fixers, we want to help give others a glimpse of the true characters behind the costumes, encouraging them to get to know someone for who they are, rather than making snap and unfair judgements.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with this Fix:

Robbie Nicoll
Lucy Gourlay
