Name: Cameron Bash
Age: 17
Year of the Fix: 2014
Location: Merthyr Tydfil
Campaign: To challenge negative perceptions of young people with tattoos and piercings

I know all too well that some people can be quick to judge those with tattoos and piercings.

In the past, I was interviewed for a job and told that if I wanted the role I would need to remove my lip ring.

This negative attitude towards body modification is what I’m campaigning to change. People should be seen for who they are on the inside and should not be judged based on the way they look – especially by employers.

With Fixers, my team and I want to show that having a tattoo or a piercing doesn’t make someone a bad person, and it doesn’t affect their ability to do a good job.

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

Aled Williams Alexandra Sidoli
Caitlin Roberts Jaynion Hampton
Jessica Morris Jordan Dryer
Joshua Gummer Liam Evans
Morgan Rogers William Evans
Bradley Scott Kaler  

Keif Price, SWYD Tattoo & Barber Parlour

Keif, a body modification artist, supports our Fixers project. He agreed to be interviewed in my broadcast piece.

 

Kiera Tsenti, Employment Consultant

Kiera is supporting our Fix. She was also interviewed to appear in my broadcast piece where she offers her thoughts on young people with tattoos and piercings in the workplace.
