Hi members,

Dear Vitiligo Support,

I hope you are well.

I am a Senior Producer at Maverick Television, please see www.mavericktv.co.uk. Maverick make the hit shows ‘Embarrassing Bodies’, ‘How to Look Good Naked’, and ‘Ten Years Younger’.

I am getting in touch with you about a BBC One 730pm television programme that i am working on. This is called ‘Make Me Better’.

In each show we will feature three adults who have a health condition that needs treatment.

Over the course of the programme we follow the treatment of these conditions, through top doctors and leading specialists in the field.

As this is BBC1 at 730pm, and normally gets at least 5 million viewers, we are very keen to raise awareness of health conditions and medical techniques through the programme.

I am currently looking for a adult male with vitiligo who is seeking treatment.

We will do everything we can to help this young man get the help and support he needs medically to improve the appearance of the condition.

If you know a man with vitiligo who might be interested then please get in touch with me at this email address or 0207 874 6683.

Thanks so much and warmest wishes

Warmest wishes

      You obviously feel very strongly about this. You should tell people more about it, what it's called, where to get it, etc...
