We're calling for global change one week before #FaceEqualityWeek

And we want to start by sharing the manifesto that our late founder, James Partridge, wrote into his book 'Face It', which launched last year

We feel this manifesto perfectly sums up the purpose of this year's #FaceEquality week! The campaign calls on:

Individuals to spread the word, to stand out and to support face equality

Education systems to ensure that all teaching staff are adequately trained to develop a culture and practice of inclusion for children with disfigurements
Employers to create a culture and practice of face equality for people with disfigurements as employees and customers

The media, advertisers and the film industry to positively promote facial diversity, to adopt factual and unbiased portrayals of disfigurement and actively avoid language and imagery that create prejudice

Politicians and policymakers to ensure that facial prejudice and discrimination are outlawed by improving anti-discrimination law and promoting best practice.

Please retweet James' manifesto if you agree, and help to make #FaceEqualityAReality
