Story

Hello and thank you for taking the time to vist our page!

Team Alopecia will be taking part in LOST in Newcastle, a 5-hour code-cracking race against time and other teams in search of a secret destination.

COCO, a registered children’s charity who make a big difference to the lives of children living in poverty throughout the developing world.

So! this is where WE come in......Team Alopecia have began a year 6 project in the village of Mahilda in Tanzania. Every year a lady from the Alopecia group will go to Tanzania to decide how the money raised is best spent whilst also working on regeneration projects.

The reason the idea came about is to try and do something purely positive, not just for the village in Africa but for the ladies who suffer with Alopecia. I hope seeing the world through the eyes of people who are less fortunate will help the girls grow and and be able to find a new perspective whilst dealing with such a devastating condition.

So! this is where YOU come in....please, please give generously.
