People with a visible difference have taken over the Changing Faces social media channels for #FaceEqualityDay

0 Replies

Today is the start of the biggest week of the year for our charity - Face Equality Week - a whole week of activities dedicated to people with a visible difference.

Our theme this year will focus on adults with a visible difference, who will lead our celebrations from start to finish. Millions of adults with a visible difference tell us they feel excluded from public life, often facing loneliness, isolation, and even hostility.

And on Wednesday, #FaceEqualityDay🦋 2019, we'll be publishing brand new research into the experiences of who have a visible difference about key issues including employment, health and wellbeing, dating and relationships.

Today three people with a visible difference take over our social media channels, sharing a behind-the-scenes look into what it's like to live with their visible difference.

Follow wfacebook.com/changingfacesuk to hear Rory's visible difference story

Follow twitter.com/FaceEquality where Ella will be tweeting throughout the day

Follow Instagram.com/ChangingFacesUK where Tulsi will be posting about her life

For more info, head to changingfaces.org.uk/FaceEq... and follow the hashtags #FaceEqualityDay and #MyVisibleDifference.🦋
