Alopecia is a condition that is poorly understood - although most people consider themselves to be amateur medics in diagnosing it down to stress! If only it was that simple…

Alison’s son Finty works as a surf instructor on Bondi Beach in Australia, and my daughter has just returned from 2 months travelling in Brazil - not much stress for either of them there!

Finty has suffered from Alopecia through school till now, and my daughter has had it for the past 2 years.

We plan to complete 30 minutes swimming in the sea at the end of September, and would love you to donate whatever you can to support this great charity working to help Alopecia sufferers. A pound a minute should help us get to our target of £300.

Thank you for any donation… Emma Barker
