The group ran a competition calling for young people to design images with anti-bullying messages to produce Snapchat filters. They will be released on Monday.
Users upload a photo of themselves with the filter to share the message with their friends. They include the words “stand up, speak up – bullying is not ok”, “stand up, speak up – say ‘no’ to bullying”, and “sprinkle compliments like confetti – let’s stop bullying”.
