I would love it if this was the year things changed. Halloween can make things so much harder for kids with a facial / visible difference.

[Changing Faces @FaceEquality]

"It’s an outdated trope, and it has an impact." This Halloween, we’ll see villains in films and costumes using scars or visible differences to look "scary." It's time to change that.

Our #IAmNotYourVillain campaign calls for more heroes & sidekicks with visible differences. 🦋

Looking forward to this! I originally wrote and created comedy drama Face It - Abbey, starring Abigail Cruttenden, for BBC iPlayer as part of Quarantine in Culture. Happy that it will help mark World Menopause Day… so important to discuss those issues.

For World Menopause Day @TheGardenCinema we're screening
