The move is designed to help young people realise how finding our place in the world can really help us to feel a sense of belonging.

We are each unique and made up of different characteristics - race, religion, culture, sexuality, gender and personality - this is what makes us individual.

Ollie Gibbs, youth engagement trainee at Blackpool HeadStart, said: “It’s important to always embrace your individuality.

“It can sometimes be hard to do so when there may be people around you who make you question who you are as a person, but learning to accept yourself and embracing it will give you a new found confidence to believe that you have the ability to achieve your aspirations.“
