Hair Loss Support Day
Our first ‘Hair Loss Support Day’ provided people with a safe and welcoming space to explore the options and support available to those experiencing hair loss as a result of cancer and its treatments. Our attendees learnt lots of scarf tying techniques, scalp care and make up tips from HeadWrappers, they received a free hand massage from Tropic Ambassador Cat and then they were given wig advice and fitted with wigs from our wig bank by Britta Wigs. All went home with a goodie bag of items to help them with hair loss. Contact us to find out more and watch this space for date of the next event: info@starthrowers.org.uk / 01953 423304
Mind-Full Mondays
From Monday 16th October we will be providing a free 30 minute zoom session to help create calm, focus, and a splash of good vibes to start your week for those affected by cancer. Grab yourself a cuppa, head to a quiet space and have a notebook and pen handy! Contact us to find out more: info@starthrowers.org.uk
