'We need to push face equality'
Changing Faces, a charity working with people who have facial abnormalities, has told the Victoria Derbyshire programme that face discrimination could even be worse than other forms of prejudice, like racism, because very little is being done to stop it.
The charity is calling for an education programme across schools nationally, to promote "face equality".
James Partridge from Changing Faces, Chelsea Burger, who has facial palsy, Joan Norris of the National Association for Primary Education, and Denise, Billy and Lois Mitchell, discussed the need for a campaign of awareness.
