Hairdressers' Charity announces Heart Team

The Hairdressers' Charity has launched its first Heart Team, a group of passionate professionals who will be the face of the charity within the hair industry.

Based across the country, the team will be working collectively to help raise the charity brand status and the charity's story, with a focus on raising funds for the child beneficiaries the charity helps each year. The Heart Team will introduce new members each year.

The 2018 Heart Team members include Amanda and Toby Dicker (The Chapel), Ella Johnson (Richard Ward Hair & Metrospa), Linda and Alan Stewart (Rainbow Room International), Lorenzo Colangelo (The Gallery) and Victor Pajak (Headquarters).

Samantha Grocutt, Co-President of The Hairdressers Charity, says:

“Our Heart Team members are hairdressers who have approached us and asked how they can get more involved. They want to encourage their fellow hairdressers to get behind the industry charity and help raise funds and the profile in simple but effective ways. The 2017 One Hour, One Day campaign we launched was through the Heart Team and helped to raise £5000 in just one day.”

Philip Sharp, Co-President, adds:

“We'll be working closely with the Heart Team throughout the year to hear their thoughts on new fundraising initiatives and how we can get our important message out to their fellow hairdressers. The passion from the Heart Team is contagious and their reach of hairdressers across the country is vital to get our story heard by more people. Our charity is about helping hairdressers in need and who better to do this, than other hairdressers.”
