Location: Aberystwyth, Wales
Campaign: To encourage young women to feel comfortable in their own skin

It’s hard for young women not to compare themselves to people they see on magazine covers and on television.

 

Most of the time, those images have been digitally enhanced and aren’t realistic depictions.

 

I’m working with Fixers to encourage more individuals to feel comfortable in their own skin and stop trying to emulate the people they see in the media.

 

Hopefully my campaign will encourage young women to feel happy in themselves and not be pressured to look a certain way.

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

 

Harriet Evola-Quinn

Tallis Buchi

Jennifer Richards

Hermione Cox-Denning

Erin Hassan

Somee Malik

Shannon Megan Sayer

Angharad Evans

Mali Jones

Harriet Beer-Doblon

I would like to thank Dr Sarah Riley, Psychologist at Aberystwyth University, for providing an interview for the ITV News item.
