Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

***UPDATE*** 

MY HAIR IS NOW A FOOT SHORTER (actually 14 inches)! I will leave the page open until after payday and thank you to everyone who has donated! It means the world to us all xx

My lovely daddy died very suddenly in November 2014. He wasn't ill, he had a sudden onset of a bad back and then within 6 hours he was gone. Over 6 months on and we're still in shock that he could be taken so quickly from an infection no one knew he had. 

I have been pondering how I could do a fundraising event when I am allergic to exercise (ahem) & I remembered a lady from instagram had chopped her hair off for The Little Princess Trust. They use the hair to make wigs for children who have lost their hair due to cancer. I will need to chop at least 8 inches off and will be donating my actual hair to them. 

My hair is my pride and joy. I've only ever had a trim for the last 20 years. It is thick and long and I get so many comments about it. I feel sick at the thought of losing so much but it will grow back (I hope) and I can help two amazing causes. 

Hair appt booked for the 17th July!

Dad was always threatening to chop all my hair off, so dad, this one's for you.  Xxx
