About this Event

C & Hair are hosting a joint event with Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust in Lewisham Community Space in Lewisham shopping centre and will be uncovering the following:

“Are you concerned about the rising incidence of cancer and its impact on the community?”

“Do you believe everything that you hear about cancer?”

We will unpack this and more at this event where we will:

  • Demystify Myths about cancer

About C & Hair: Managing Cancer-related Afro Hair Loss

This service is dedicated to providing support and guidance for individuals with Afro-textured hair faced with hair loss due to cancer treatment. We run Support Groups, hold individual hair clinics, provide interactive workshops, provide educational content and train hairdressers.

At C & Hair, we recognise not only the medical implications of treating cancer, but also the social and psychological impact of cancer-related hair loss. It is a support network to assist people going through what may be one of the most challenging periods of their life.

This event is made possible thanks to support from Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust and Macmillan Cancer Support. By registering for a ticket, you consent to your details being passed to Macmillan Cancer Support and Lewisham and Greenwich NHS to process your registration.
