Back to normal?

2 Replies

When will life return to normal? This has been the question on a lot of people's minds as we have moved in and out lockdowns in the UK. Earlier this week the Prime Minister revealed plans for ending the current lockdown restrictions. Whilst a return to normal life may sound exciting for many we also know that for lots of people with a visible difference this might be quite daunting and anxiety provoking.

Tulsi Vagjiani, Ambassador of Changing Faces, says lockdown has been a break from 'the uncomfortable feelings and staring' when out in public after she suffered burns to 45% of her face and body.

I wonder if people would be willing to share what worries or concerns, they have about returning to normal life?

I'm hoping more people will still be able to work from home. I know a lot of people with visible differences suffer from low self esteem and anxiety, so I think remote work will open more doors for us. I hope so anyway. There are a lot of people with disabilities who I know would love to pursue a meaningful career. So I hope once things go back to normal, our new normal will include more opportunities for people with differences of all types.
