Look Good Feel Better 13/02/17

So as part of our work experience 2 lovely ladies came in from the company Look good feel better to have a chat about the charity and what they do etc. So it is a charity providing support to women with cancer and its free. The charity is there to help these ladies and give them support and a lot more confidence within theirselves they do this by providing makeup and hair work shops showing the ladies how to apply makeup especially to the areas where they have lost hair such as eyebrows and eyelashes and a lot of people going through Cancer treatment their skin turns grey so the ladies that volunteer for the charity will demonstrate how to cover it up. Not only this the ladies are given a huge goodie bag full of makeup, skin care and a full size perfume to cheer them up and to encourage them to wear makeup to make themselves feel better.

For women with cancer it must feel so daunting and life changing not only this its the stress that their bodies are changing and their appearance is changing. They may feel like they have no one to turn to for some support. But the ladies at Look Good Feel Better are there to help and i think its an amazing charity and theres only 1 in the UK. I think its really nice for all the ladies as they are all in the same situation and its nice for them to be able to socialise and have that support that they need. There is cooked food and all drinks available and again its all free for everyone. I can imagine how amazing the women feel after they have applied their makeup and gotten to socialise with more women in the same situation as them their confidence would of doubled and thats amazing as these ladies need to feel amazing especially for what they are going through.

The first LGFB workshop was in 1994 and has helped over 130,000 patients and there is all different venues all across the UK with the workshops and masterclasses available for women suffering from cancer.

Anyone is welcome to volenteer to help out with the classes and just show support for everyone there if your interested you can head over to the look good feel better website and apply to be a volunteer.
