Alopecia UK is a small registered charity working hard to improve the lives of those affected by alopecia. The charity has aims of Support, Awareness and Research.

A diagnosis of alopecia can make you feel like your world has been turned upside down. It can impact on relationships, work and social life. Many can find it difficult to go out in public to begin with, or even look in a mirror. Alopecia UK is here to help people at this difficult time.

My daughter suffers alopecia and at present, has lost all her hair. This charity started a youth support group where Freya got to meet other children who know exactly how she feels, it’s been a massive support to us as a family and we therefore would like to give something back. My friends and I are walking in support of this amazing charity.
