Name: Shannon Finan
Age: 20
Year of the Fix: 2015
Location: Coventry
Campaign: To promote healthy attitudes to body image

When I was younger, I developed eating disorders as a result of low self-esteem.

I used to be critical of myself because I didn’t look like the people I’d see in magazines.

Back then, I didn’t realise that beauty came in all shapes and sizes.

Now, I’m in recovery, and with Fixers, I want to help promote healthy attitudes to body image.

I want to inspire other young people to feel positive and confident about their appearance.

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

 

Abbi Winn Adam Power
Benjamin Venson David Reaney
Ellie Hodgson Emily Doran
Emily Ross Harvey Broadbent
Kam Adams Karine Harber
Khadija Sheikh Luke Macfadyen
Matthew Smith Naomi-Natalie Brown
Paige Jacobs Paul Blundell
Phian Vince Rachel Joseph
Sabrina French Sophie Hughes

Holly Matthews, Actress

Holly Matthews, an actress and my acting teacher, supports my Fix. She agreed to be interviewed to appear in my broadcast piece.
