What is Alopecia?
Alopecia simply means hair loss. There are many types of alopecia, and the charity supports people with all types of alopecia, because the psychological impact can be the same, regardless of cause or type. The majority of people who contact Alopecia UK have Alopecia Areata, which is understood to be an autoimmune condition. Alopecia Areata typically appears as patches on the scalp and/or beard. It sometimes progresses to Alopecia Totalis (total hair loss on the scalp), or Alopecia Universalis (total loss of hair from scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes and body). This dramatic change in appearance, while not life threatening, is certainly life changing. Altered feelings around identity and sense of self can impact on confidence and self-esteem, resulting in psychological challenges being presented in many everyday life situations. What does Alopecia UK do?
Support – we facilitate peer support through our UK-wide support group network, online peer support platforms, national and regional events, and one-to-one support given to individuals via phone and emails. We also maintain a website full of information, advice and support.
Awareness – we educate the general public about alopecia through social media, advice packs, events, our website and podcast. We support various TV, radio, newspaper and magazine (both print and digital) media articles. We also advocate for the alopecia community amongst healthcare professionals and peer charities, with a view to improving the patient experience.
Research – we distribute research grants and lead our own research, with the support of our Research Committee and Lay Research Panel. We also support various research projects by helping to recruit participants for them. We build awareness of alopecia research within the general public, the alopecia community and the medical community.
Alopecia UK Staff Team
Following 10 years of being entirely volunteer-led, Alopecia UK moved towards having paid staff resource in 2014, eventually culminating in the Charity’s first full-time employees in 2016. The Charity opened its first office in the same year. We now have six employed staff, led by our Chief Executive Officer Sue Schilling. Our staff are skilled, enthusiastic, and passionate about delivering the Charity’s aims.
While we have a small paid staff team, we have a larger overall team, as we utilise a lot of volunteer help in order for the Charity to provide the range of services that it does.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
