Changing Faces campaigners share their experiences and call for change. Current campaigners have spoken with policy makers, addressed MPs, presented in board rooms of big businesses and given interviews across the media.
Their campaigns have raised awareness of what it’s like to live with a visible difference in the UK today, including Visible Hate, Stop the Stare and I Am Not Your Villain.
About our campaigner programme
Volunteer campaigners join a supported two-year programme that helps people to learn new skills, build the confidence to tell their story, create calls to action and share campaign messages. They get:
- media spokesperson training
- public speaking workshops
- advice on how to make an impact with social media
Every year we recruit a new group of campaigners. Applications for this year’s cohort are now closed, but sign up to our newsletter to be the first to hear when applications will reopen.
“I’m so grateful that my work with Changing Faces has given me the chance to project my views in an impactful way, influencing society for the better.”
Campaigners can get involved in campaigns such as Face Equality Week
