Story

Currently, my hair is about 80cm long and goes down to just below my hips (when straight), I figured that if I was going to cut it, I may aswell cut it for a good reason. Starting from the 1st of October 2012 I am collecting sponsor money to cut it right up to above my shoulders, that is about 50cm of hair...gone.

   I really believe in supporting chairities, especially Cance Research UK because of all the people in the world being affected by cancer every day. In my family alone, many people have been diagnosed with cancer such as my mum, my great uncle, my great aunt. One day, it is fairly likely that I will to. And until that day I'm going to do my best to raise money in hope that one day we'll find a cure.

   Please, to anyone who's reading this, every little bit of money adds up to a big cause. Even if you just want to give as little as 20p, if 20 people give 20p, then we have £4, if 40 people give 20p, we have £8 and it all adds up. So, please donate to help me reach my target. Just think of all the help you could be giving, you collectively could save someone's life.

   Thanks(: xx
