“Only the bravest organisations talk about subjects that most people would rather ignore. Changing Faces is one of those organisations. It does a remarkable job raising awareness of this important issue and challenges negative attitudes to facial disfigurement. We welcome this positive and inspirational campaign which shows that how you look should be nothing to do with what you can achieve.” Nicola Brewer, Chief Executive, Equality and Human Rights Commission

"Dan’s Fund for Burns is delighted to support Changing Faces in this very important “face equality” campaign. Disfigurement to any part of our body is difficult to live with. Our faces, however, are what we show first to the world and are what we are often judged by. This campaign is a major step forward in recognising the need to educate the general public to have a wider acceptance of different appearances and to look deeper to the person beyond." Polly Brooks, Director, Dan’s Fund for Burns

"We are conditioned to make rapid assessments of people from their appearance. A person with a facial difference can often be adversely affected by this instinctive reaction. This campaign will help us all to re-assess how we perceive others and therefore the Vitiligo Society fully and wholeheartedly supports this initiative." Jennifer Viles, Manager, Vitiligo Society

“We are delighted to support this new campaign from Changing Faces. People with psoriasis, particularly those with facial psoriasis, can and do experience negative responses of their skin. We whole-heartedly support the aims of the face equality campaign.” Gladys Edwards, Chief Executive, The Psoriasis Association

“At RAFT we believe the face equality campaign will significantly raise awareness and change the way those with disfigurement are treated. We would like people to be viewed fairly and without prejudice regardless of their appearance. We wish this campaign by Changing Faces the great success it deserves.” Hermione Crosfield OBE, Chairman

“Young people are conscious of their appearance now more than ever and those who have some form of disfigurement, particularly a facial one, will always dread that first reaction: the whisper or the laugh when people see them for the first time.

The Birthmark Support Group not only supports those with birthmarks but aims to educate others on how to deal with those who may look different. In this respect we strongly support and applaud Changing Faces' face equality campaign, standing out for fairness for those with disfigurements.” Nick Ward, Chairman, Birthmark Support Group

"We wholeheartedly support Changing Faces’ campaign to introduce "face equality." We are more than just our faces. We are special people with faces to match. Maybe we do look "different" but society can learn to value every face." Christine Piff, Let's Face it, an International Support Network for people with facial disfigurements

"I am pleased to support the work of Changing Faces in their campaign for inclusion for all people with facial disfigurements." Julian Richer, CEO, Richer Sounds

“RADAR supports the face equality campaign because we want a just and equal society whose strength is human difference. That means rooting out discrimination in all its forms - from insidious prejudice to outright bullying. We wish the campaign every success." Phil Friend OBE, Chair and Liz Sayce, Chief Executive, RADAR (Royal Association for Disability and Rehabilitation)

“The British Skin Foundation whole-heartedly supports ‘face equality’ and sees the campaign as a definite platform to raise the important issue of discrimination. The campaign will communicate a powerful and vital message and we are delighted to give face equality our full backing.” Matthew Patey, Chief Executive of the British Skin Foundation

"The Cleft Lip and Palate Association (CLAPA) fully endorses Changing Faces' face equality campaign. We know there are many, many people with clefts who find it difficult to relate to other people in both social and work situations as a result of looking - and sometimes sounding - different to others. We hope this campaign will increase awareness of facial difference and ensure that familiarity with appearance issues will lead to a far greater level of social acceptance." Gareth Davies, Chief Executive, CLAPA

“The Healing Foundation, the UK’s largest disfigurement research charity, supports Changing Faces’ important work in addressing discrimination and disadvantage on the grounds of appearance. Information – for those with and without disfigurement – is key in improving understanding and Changing Faces is uniquely qualified to champion this cause.” Brendan Ely, Chief Executive, Healing Foundation
