Campaign: | To challenge gender inequality in workplaces |
I'm an apprentice welder. I love my work and I'm good at it, but I get negative comments when I tell people about my job.
People have said that I'm 'doing a man's job' or to 'get back in the kitchen', and it needs to stop.
I made the film with Fixers because I want to encourage young people to follow whatever career path they want to, and not let gender stereotypes stop them.
Tyne Met College supported me with this Fix.

Me and my friends want young people to know that calories aren't the enemy!
