Name: Dearbhla Crossen
Age: 16
Year of the Fix: 2013
Location: Belfast
Campaign: Body Image

There is a pressure on teenagers to look good based on what they see in magazines and on the internet.

 

We hope to encourage boys and girls to feel good the way they are.

 

I've seen how social media influences young minds as people feel they have to look a certain way. This is what I want to change among young people.

 

We're constantly confronted, on a daily basis, with what it means to be 'perfect'. But what is perfect?

 

It's not just girls we're looking to reach out to, because this affects boys too.

 

Our aim is to develop a campaign, which will not only deter young people away from getting sucked in by the images they see, but to be comfortable with the way they are.

 

Everybody is different and to judge somebody from the way they look is wrong. This is what we are fighting to change.

 

I hope our Fixers message will reach the people it needs to and hopefully make a change.

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