-What exactly is alopecia, Dr Llinos?

-Alopecia is a medical term

-for hair loss.

-There are many types of hair loss

-with different symptoms and causes.

-It's quite common for a man

-to lose his hair with age.

-The hair recedes and they go

-thin on the top.

-Alopecia can strike at any age,

-but it's more common in adults.

-Alopecia areata is one of the

-most common types of alopecia.

-Alopecia areata

-is labelled as stress alopecia.

-There are patches of hair loss.

-when you lose your hair.

-It can affect different areas.

-You can lose hair from your scalp

-or over your body.

-I was 15 years old

-when I had alopecia.

-My mother spotted it.

-The patches would come and go.

-I had my daughter and lost all the

-hair on my scalp and over my body.

-It affected my confidence.

-I've learnt to live with it.

-I don't consider myself

-as being ill.

-I've accepted it.

-I had to accept it from early on.

-I'm living with no hair

-on a daily basis.

-It's hard for a woman as

-there's emphasis on your hair.

-I've had to love what I see

-in the mirror today.

-It's harder for women.

-How do people respond to you

-on the street?

-People have accepted men

-with no hair.

-People don't accept women

-with no hair.

-I enjoy running

-and I found wearing a wig a hassle.

-People mistake it for the affects

-of chemotherapy.

-I have to explain to people

-that it is alopecia.

-I can also hear people

-talking behind my back about it.

-I wouldn't never say anything like

-that about someone else.

-It can affect you psychologically.

-Yes, it has a psychological affect.

-You have to accept the diagnosis.

-This can be tough on young people.

-Image is everything for some people.

-storyline about Sheryl's alopecia.

-I like the fact that they are paying

-attention to this condition.

-It's one of the best ways

-to raise awareness of alopecia.

-Many people don't know a lot

-about the condition.

-There's treatment available.

-There's very little of it.

-can return over your lifetime.

-Treatments aren't always effective

-and don't always work.

-They can also prove expensive.

-Subtitles

-Welcome back.

-A Welsh-speaking doctor or nurse

-can make of difference to a patient.

-Our next guests

-know this only too well.

-Gwenan Davies is from

-the Hywel Dda Health Board...

-..and Dr Llinos

-has returned to the sofa.

-Welcome to you both.

-The Hywel Dda Health Board

-has started a new campaign...

-..that deals with

-the Welsh language.

-It was launched on St David's Day.

-We've launched a new project.

-I work with the Welsh team.

-We want to promote the language

-within the Health Board.

-We decided to launch the video

-of Ioan...

-..and the sticker scheme.

-How does the campaign work?

-It was the idea of

-a lady in Carmarthen.

-She used to give stickers

-and certificates to children.

-We wanted to make Welsh ones.

-So we decided to design some.

-A sticker can make a difference.

-A sticker makes

-a big difference to a child.

-What response have you had?

-We've had a great reaction so far.

-We're making sure that

-they arrive in the correct places.

-To give the best services,

-we have to have good communication.

-We should be able to give

-the patient...

-..the right to speak

-in the Welsh language.

-Communication without having

-to depend on an interpreter...

-..is important.

-A child can be very scared by

-going to the doctor or the nurse.

-If they speak Welsh to them,

-it can be very comforting.

-What about the video, Gwenan?

-The aim in the video

-was to show the staff...

-..that speaking Welsh

-is an essential part.

-We hope that Ioan will help.

-Ioan is two years old.

-He was born six weeks early.

-He stars in our video...

-..and shows the importance

-of communicating in Welsh.

-Have you got another scheme?

-We have a few things

-in the pipeline.

-We hope to make more projects

-like this.

-We hope we'll have more news

-for you soon.

-How many online hits have you had?

-Almost 20,000 people have viewed

-the video online.

-Adults also want the stickers.

-The latest series of 35 Diwrnod

-started last Sunday.

-In a moment, we'll chat to one of

-What?

-What?

-

-We're going. We're leaving.

-Arts Care Gofal Celf uses the arts

-Arts Care Gofal Celf was the first

-to charity to bring people together.

-There were plenty

-of institutes and bodies...

-..that helped with funding artwork

-for the walls of hospitals.

-This was something

-that wasn't as sexy...

-..but people didn't understand

-what we were trying to achieve.

-Traditionally, we associate mental

-health groups with art therapy...

-..which is more about

-psychoanalysis.

-It's the analysis of the work

-and so on.

-These groups are more about

-social inclusion.

-It's also about giving people skills

-and building their confidence.

-Today sees a special ceremony

-to celebrate the success...

-..of the first winner of The

-Dr Huw Bevan Jones Competition...

-..for the best piece of work

-Dr Huw Bevan Jones was one

-of the founders of the charity.

-Lindy Martin won the competition

-with her piece called Why Me?

-It shows that one in four will have

-mental health issues in their lives.

-It's absolutely amazing to be

-the first recipient of the prize...

-..because I have been involved

-with the group a while.

-It means a lot to me and I believe

-in what they are trying to do here.

-I was lucky to be asked to chair

-the panel with three other judges.

-The standard of entries

-was very high.

-I think three or four could have won

-but we all agreed on this piece.

-The gallery on Carmarthen's King

-Street exhibits and sells work...

-..by some of the charity's

-registered artists.

-Some 30% of the profit

-is reinvested into the charity.

-professional artists on its books.

-for our exhibitions...

-..that change

-every four to six weeks.

-Some exhibit their work

-around the world.

-These are the artists

-who work with our various groups.

-Everyone has the right to be taught

-by the best and we have the best.

-I teach dance in the community in

-Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire.

-I'm teaching with the Hijinx Theatre

-who have learning disabilities.

-These sort of classes boosts their

-confidence to socialize with others.

-These things are important

-so that they don't feel excluded.

-The day also saw the

-..and acknowledge the work of

-Dr Huw Bevan Jones to the charity.

-This group was important to my

-father as he helped start it.

-that was part of the competition.

-Arts Care Gofal Celf is going
