Alopecia UK
1,491 members
Alopecia UK is a small national charity working to improve the lives of those affected by alopecia through aims of support, awareness, research and fundraising. Despite being a small charity we are still the largest alopecia charity in the UK with big ambitions to develop and grow further. Alopecia UK was founded in 2004 and registered with the Charity Commission of England & Wales in September 2005. Registration with the Scottish Charity Regulator took place in February 2014. We also have a website full of information and support - https://www.alopecia.org.uk/ As well as a very active closed Facebook group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/AlopeciaUK/ Our HealthUnlocked forum is still fairly quiet, as such if you ever find your post goes unanswered or you'd like some further help please consider joining the Facebook group or contacting the charity directly.
