'It's about respect and making sure we have positive representation' Baton bearer backing 'Stop the Stare' campaign.

A baton bearer for Birmingham's Commonwealth games is backing calls for people to stop staring at those who look different.

Despite most of us being taught that it's rude to stare, the charity Changing Faces says people with scars, birthmarks, or other conditions affecting their appearance often feel threatened by the looks they get when out in public places.

It's Face Equality Week.. and the theme this year is 'Stop the Stare.'

30 year old Ella Davies is student paramedic with West Midlands Ambulance Service - who's living with a visible difference

She's backing the campaign.
