Hair & Beauty Charity launches Relief Fund

The Hair & Beauty Charity has launched a Relief Fund to raise much needed donations during the Coronavirus crisis.

With thousands of industry professionals unable to work and hair, beauty and barber salons now closed, there has been a tremendous increase in requests for help to the industry charity during this time.  

In order to support the unprecedented demand and with several of the charity's fundraising activities and events being cancelled, a Relief Fund has been launched. The Hair & Beauty Charity is aiming to raise at least £20,000 to support those experiencing poverty and hardship.

Samantha Grocutt, President of The Hair & Beauty Charity, explains:

“We are in unprecedented times and the hair, beauty and barbering community is suffering tremendously.  Although the government have now announced support for businesses and self-employed, there are still a big section of our industry who may not be able to get the government support, so will need to help from the industry charity. 

“We really need everyone to get behind this campaign and share the message and donate what they can – no matter how small, every £1 will make a difference to someone during this unique time we're in.  We're in this together and I hope people can support the charity during this time.”
