Louise Wright, Chief Executive

“I am thrilled to be Chief Executive at Changing Faces. Around 20% of people in the UK have a visible difference, and nearly half of those have experienced inappropriate or unwelcome attention because of this.

Changing Faces plays a leading role, not just in supporting people with a visible difference through their services, but also in changing attitudes through their energetic campaigns. It is an organisation that shares my passion for a fairer society for all and I am excited to be joining such a fantastic team.”

Frances Howard, Director of Finance and Resources

“It is a huge privilege to work at Changing Faces, an organisation which has provided life-changing support and understanding for so many people with a visible difference. My priority is to ensure that colleagues have the financial information and guidance needed to provide the best possible experience to those who we support.

I come into this role with experience from a variety of finance positions within both the not-for-profit sector and financial services, including PwC, and National Citizens Advice.

I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with such passionate and talented colleagues as we look to build on the legacy of excellent work increasing acceptance, understanding and access to support.”
