“The cost of my wig was £650 but the supplier offered a 10% discount for VIP Cardholders so I saved £65. Definitely worth spending £20 on my VIP Card!”  2021 VIP Cardholder

“I’ve followed Alopecia UK for some time now.  I have gained so much by participating in their groups but I have to say when I see the pictures of the kids events it warms my heart.  I would have loved there to be such activities when I was a child with alopecia.  I’m so glad to know that I’m supporting the work of a charity that is so close to my heart.  Keep it up Alopecia UK.”  VIP Cardholder.

We really hope many of you will want to become an AUK VIP. Not only is it an opportunity to grab some discounts and save some money, it’s a fantastic way to show your support to Alopecia UK and help us to achieve our aims around Support, Awareness and Research.  And supporting a small charity brings unlimited amounts of warm fuzzy feelings!

AUK VIP Card FAQs

My usual supplier isn’t on the directory.  What can I do?

If your local supplier is not currently included in our Service Directory, why not encourage them to sign up?  We want to include as many businesses as possible who do good work and are recommended by the alopecia community. You can recommend a business by completing our Business Recommendation form here.  We will then contact them to see if they would like to join our Service Directory.

Why is it called a VIP Card?

We’ve named the cards ‘VIP Cards’ because, simply speaking, our supporters are Very Important People to us. Alopecia UK couldn’t continue its work without the support of VIPs like YOU!  Our VIP Cards help us to increase our regular annual income (something that is so important to a small charity) whilst also giving something back with discounts for our valued supporters.

When does the AUK VIP Card year run until? 

For 2022/23 the AUK VIP Card runs from 1st April to 31st March 2023 (in line with our financial year).  Please note you will need a new card each VIP Card Year. Regardless of the month you join, your card will expire on 31st March 2023. You may wish to bear this in mind when considering when to join. However, if you are making an expensive purchase with a supplier who offers a discount to AUK VIPs, it might be that the savings far outweigh the cost of the card in which case you might wish to purchase a VIP Card even if the year is about to end. 

How do I know which businesses offer VIP discounts?

You can look through all the Service Directory businesses on our website here.  On each page you will be able to see if they offer a discount to VIP Cardholders and what that discount is.

How do I claim an AUK VIP Card discount? 

If a Service Directory supplier offers discounts to AUK VIP Cardholders, this can be obtained in salon by simply showing a participating supplier your AUK VIP Card. If a participating supplier is an online retailer, you will need to use the discount code provided to you on your card. 

What happens if I lose my AUK VIP Card? 

Please keep your AUK VIP Card safe. If you lose it, we are able to issue a replacement card but there will be an admin charge payable of £10. Please email us at [email protected] to request a replacement card.
