David tells us what he'd like to change for people with alopecia.. Thanks David! 💙 #WeAreWorthIt #AlopeciaAwarenessMonth

Hair loss is a common problem, but the number of researchers studying it is small. Alopecia UK supports early career researchers so that they can build a career in alopecia research, to grow the capacity for new discoveries which can improve the lives of people with alopecia 💙

From our latest 'September Snapshot' survey it's great to see that such a large percentage of our community believe that alopecia awareness has increased since they were diagnosed, but we really need to see a reduction in societal stigma 💙 #AlopeciaAwarenessMonth #WeAreWorthIt

Our Schools Pack can help families with alopecia to both raise awareness with teachers and peers, but also advocate for small changes that can make a big difference. Such as flexibility in uniform policy to accommodate head coverings. Thanks Nathaniel 💙 #WeAreWorthIt

Time for another 'back to basics' post.. Regardless of the type of alopecia experienced, there is no cure. Treatments are available but they will not work for every person. It is why it is so important that research continues to find new treatment options, and possibly a cure💙

"Feeling comfortable in my wig is something I can struggle with. Maybe it's itchy, too tight or loose, too dull or bright. However I can have so many different colours, styles, lengths of hair!" Thanks Sarah 💙 Wigs are a big part of the alopecia experience for many people.

This Friday 13th we want to focus on good fortune rather than bad luck.. We feel very lucky to have had some wonderful humans run the Great North Run last Sunday for Alopecia UK, raising over £6,500 to support our work. 2025 GNR public ballot closes today at midday!
