Katie-Louise

Name: Katie-Louise Davis
Age: 22
Year of the Fix: 2016
Location: Norwich, East Anglia
Campaign: To show young people there’s more to life than looks

I was bullied at school over my appearance which had a real impact on my self-esteem.

 

I thought that if I was thinner, I would be more popular.

  

At the age of 16, I was diagnosed with anorexia. I’m a lot better now, but it a very dark time in my life.

 

With Fixers, I’m campaigning to show others in my shoes that there is more to life than looks.

 

I also hope it challenges society’s traditional views on beauty and makes people realise they’re fine the way they are.

I would like to thank Jordan Morris and Louise Waller for helping me with this Fix.
