UKSA and LGFB partner to support cancer patients

The UK Spa Association (UKSA) has signed a new national partnership deal with Look Good Feel Better UK (LGFB), the charity dedicated to helping people manage the physical and emotional side effects of cancer treatment.

The collaboration will create a “meaningful new avenue” for the UK’s spa, beauty, and wellness industry to make a difference in cancer communities across the UK and in the lives of those affected by cancer.

Through the partnership, UKSA members will have the opportunity to directly support LGFB’s confidence-boosting workshops, local cancer community events and fundraising initiatives, helping cancer patients to feel more like themselves during and after treatment.

Bobby Griffiths, General Manager of the UKSPA, said: “As an industry built around care, healing and wellbeing, we have a unique role to play in supporting people during one of the most challenging times of their lives. This partnership gives our members a direct and impactful way to give back, using their skills and platforms to support those on their cancer journey.”

LGFB now supports more than 15,000 people each year across the UK, helping them regain confidence through expert-led workshops and practical support.

The workshops focus on skin care and make-up, hair loss support and head wrapping, hand and nail care, styling for confidence (clothing), as well as a dedicated programme for men, offering straight-forward solutions and wellness support during their treatment.
