Body image issues are often misunderstood and hard to challenge.
Body image issues affect 72% of our young people and the rates seem to be rising all the time. And it’s not just young people who are affected.
Do you struggle to answer your loved one when they say:
‘Mum, do I look fat in this’? ‘Mum I’ve gained so much weight I hate myself!’ ‘Am I pretty?’ ‘I feel fat!’
