The Little Princess provides real hair wigs to children suffering hair loss due
to cancer treatement.
The charity is in memory of Hannah Tarplee, a 'little princess' who lost her battle
in June 2005.
We supply and fully fund the best wigs available from all over the world,
especially designed for children. We also provide personal fitting and
styling to ensure the wig is as close as possible to the original hair.
For any parent, discovering your child has a serious illness like cancer or
leukaemia
is devastating. The trauma for both parent and child can be increased by worrying
about the side effects of the treatment, particularly hair loss.
Most children cope remarkably well when their hair falls out. For some children
however, this can be very upsetting. This is particularly true of young girls, hence
the name, Little Princesses.
Each year, Little Princesses helps hundreds of children.
