British Skin Foundation (http://www.britishskinfoundation.org.uk/)

Working closely with patient support groups (including Alopecia UK) as well as many of the country's leading dermatology departments, the Foundation aims to help the 7 million people in the UK who suffer with a serious skin condition.

British Association of Dermatologists (http://www.bad.org.uk/)

Changing Faces (http://www.changingfaces.co.uk/)
Changing faces is a charity aimed at helping people face disfigurement with confidence. While the site itself doesn't have anything specific to alopecia, a lot of the general information is very relevant. The site is easy to use and has a good range of links.

Outlook (http://www.northbristol.nhs.uk/depts/surgicalservices/Outlook/)
Outlook is a psychological support service for anyone affected by a disfigurement or visible difference. The service is based at Frenchay hospital in Bristol. The website doesn't have much information, but for people in the right area, who are finding it difficult to cope with their hairloss, a referral to this service could be very helpful. This is the only NHS funded service of this kind in England.

Alopecia UK is a registered charity No. 1111304
