Shaving my hair!, 6 January 2020
We provide short breaks and holidays to help Children diagnosed with Cancer

Story

Recently, I learnt that years ago my Nanny had breast cancer. I asked my mummy lots of questions about what happened to her and the treatment she went through to fight this illness. I found out that she had to have medication which made her lose her hair. 

One of my friends in my old school had cancer and she lost some of her hair too while having treatment. She is better now but it makes me really sad to think about people that have cancer, especially other children. I love going on holiday so have decided to shave my hair to raise money to support Holibobs; a charity that helps children with cancer go on holiday with their family. I will also donate all my hair again to make wigs for children. This is a really important cause for me and I'm really excited about it. 

I am lucky I have a choice while other people don't and they lose their hair while also being unwell and having really strong medicines and operations. For me it is only hair and it will grow back! 

Thank you for your support!

Holibobs is a charity that supports Children with Cancer or Leukaemia. When a child is diagnosed with Cancer a family's world is turned upside down. It is frightening as the once healthy child is replaced by a very sick child & normal family life is replaced by endless days in hospital. Time away becomes crucial however families often struggle financially & are not in the position to fund breaks away. This is where Holibobs can help by making a child's holiday wish come true and by providing families with precious time away together.
