Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit this JustGiving page. 
For decades I've been growing a beard which is now 25cm long when drawn to a point. On my 84th birthday (29 June) Hayley of Halo, Newbold Verdon, will give me a haircut then shave it all off. You can sponsor my naked-chinness by donating to this human rights and humanitarian campaigner:                                                            openDemocracy is an independent international media platform. We produce high-quality journalism which challenges power, inspires change and builds leadership among groups underrepresented in the media. Headquartered in London, we have team members across four continents.
