BBC3 Documentary

[samfirecracker]

Firecracker Films are making a landmark observational documentary for BBC3 about body image. We are particularly keen to speak to people aged 16-25 who are experiencing hair loss and are considering treatment.

If you €™re that person, we want to hear from you. This is a great opportunity to raise awareness of the issues affecting your life.

All correspondence will be dealt with in complete confidence and by contacting us you are not making a commitment to take part in the final programme - at this stage, it's just research.

You can contact me, Sam, at [email protected].

Look forward to hearing from you.

If only i was 25 again, this is a good opportunity for young people to get their point across regarding hairloss and the problems it causes.

If a Tv program can show how hairloss really affects people and not the usual mickey taking then i`m all for it.

Me too, problem is though most tv programmes do take the mickey........would be good to see a show that really potrays how it affects people.

Exactly , the last BBC documentary was disgraceful ... hence my comments .. take the piss out the bbc first

I thought it was worth telling you a bit more about the programme, as it's a bit different from other documentaries.

This documentary will be filmed entirely by the contributors themselves, which means it's a unique opportunity for young people to tell their stories, in their own words.

If this sounds like something you'd like to be part of, please do get in touch.

Thanks,

Sam

Hi I am 46 years old and when I was a young man ..went through the pain of losing my hair...body image etc...tough I am now a young looking/feeling middle aged man I would be happy to give a perspective to younger people as to how it still effects you and how your attitude changes as you get older...if this is an angle you may be interested in then get in touch

[Bigmac]

Samfirecracker, it may be worth your while to send someone along to the meet up we`re having in May, the thread is just below this one.
