Billy's campaign for Young Minds Trust

I am a young man named Billy who is wanting to shave my head for two reasons. I suffer from alopecia areata. This is an auto-immune disorder where the body attacks itself and in turn hair falls out. I am wanting to embrace the imperfections of myself but most importantly to raise money for a young adults who suffer from mental illness. This resonates with me due to losing a best mate of mine who suffered in silence. In doing this I’d hope to help anyone to speak up about mental health. Even if this reaches out to one person I will perceive it a huge positive.  Anything and everything is hugely appreciated.
