Beauty and Wellbeing APPG

First Registered: 23/03/2022 • Last updated on: 18/06/2025

The group seeks to spotlight and raise the reputation of the beauty industry by investigating and exploring key issues that impact the sectors within it. By highlighting these issues, the group aims to underscore the importance of tackling misinformation, and the economic and social benefits to the UK.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
