Make 2nds Count is dedicated to making people living with secondary breast cancer count. We do this by raising funds to support specialist research into secondary breast cancer, extending and improving the quality of life for patients battling against this treatable yet incurable disease.

Story

Iolo's been growing his hair since 2019 and the time has come to go for the chop and donate over two feet of gorgeous hair to make a wig for a child or young person with hair loss.

Iolo wanted to use this as an opportunity to fundraise for a charity that was important to his mum's friend Emily.

"I like my hair but now it's this long I want to use it so another kid can have a wig if they've lost their hair to alopecia or cancer treatment. I want to help Make 2nds Count for Emily."

Secondary breast cancer is breast cancer which has spread from the breast to other parts of the body. Although secondary breast cancer can be treated, there is no cure. Unlike those living with primary breast cancer, there is no end of treatment, there is no remission.

It’s estimated that 35,000 people are currently living with secondary breast cancer in the UK yet only 7% of the National funding for cancer goes towards this incurable disease. Make 2nds Count aim to address this imbalance.

Please give generously!
