Treacle Moon's #BeYou project

Many young people in today's society have a huge amount of pressure on their shoulders to be what society classes as normal. They are made into somebody that they are not just to be accepted by their peers. It is so easy to be somebody else around other people, you can easily lose sight of who you really are. The popularity of social media is also at the highest point, especially for young people, which also means it is now harder and harder for young people to be accepted into society and this leads to bullying, which is now also happening when the young people go home, through their phones and the internet. If everybody in the world were identical, it would be a boring place to live. I am working with Treacle Moon and  I am promoting #BeYou.



Treacle Moon's #BeYou project is about having the confidence to be exactly who you are, not what other people want you to be. It's about having the confidence to stand up and speak out and not just following the crowd. It is showing people how wonderful it is to just #BeYou. Treacle Moon are also working alongside Bullies Out, to raise awareness and funds for the amazing work they do to help victims of bullying.


Being yourself is one of the easiest things you can be. If you like different music, embrace it. If you wear different clothes to the people you know, work it.  If you don't like the latest trends, that is okay. Never be or do anything that you feel uncomfortble with, just #BeYou. When people make negative comments about you, don't think you need to change your whole personality to fit their idea of perfection. Grow from it and you can and will become stronger. So many people will love you for you.

It it okay to be yourself!

'I was taught that being myself was not only okay, but encouraged-and by being unapologetically yourself, you thrive and inspire others to thrive' - Tyler Oakley 

 This project is something that needs to be talked about. If you are wondering how to get invloved you can;
Tweet @treaclemoon_UK an inspiring quote, whether you make it up or if you see one you like on the internet. Be sure to include #BeYou.
You can also post on Facebook or Instagram a picture of something that makes you, you. Whether you have a weird hobby or a unique fashion sense.
Treacle Moon also have merchandise for the #BeYou project. You can buy a wristband, a bag or a T-shirt, just like mine and wear them with pride to show you are supporting #BeYou. Again, they would love to see it on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter with the hashtag #BeYou.
You can also fundraise for Bullies Out through cake sales and other fundraisers.
