Fund a campaign to show that people come in all shapes and sizes!

Petition Details

I would like the government to run an awareness campaign to show all different body types and help prevent eating disorders. Fashion brands and their marketing in particular can impact young girls' lives and lead them towards eating less and even eating disorders. Which can impact their whole lives.

Additional Information

The government with the help of specific charities and the NHS can help support young women and men who are struggling from anorexia from social media and people promoting their brands with unhealthy images. Fashion brands may be causing a considerable number of young women and girls to switch their diets so they can be part of the stereotype 'skinny' and 'trendy'.
