Story

So, the time is finally approaching! I am going to cut off my hair for charity!

As of today, my hair measures at 33" and I am hoping to donate pretty much all of it - if I reach my fundraising goal of £250 I will shave my head and go COMPLETELY BALD!

My hair will go to the Little Princesses Trust to make free real hair wigs for young people. Apparently, hair over 16" is in the greatest demand, so I hope my donation can really help the charity.

 All the money donated will go towards funding the Helping Hands charity. Warwick Canoe and Canoe Polo are two clubs at my University that have been great fun, and as my third year on exec, have been a huge part of my life. Helping Hands are their chosen charity for the year, as they do great work within the local community. Helping Hands take a holistic approach to helping homeless people - from interview skills, furnishing homes, and soup kitchens - they offer a hand up, not a hand out. 

I hope you will give generously, and if you do, bald selfies will be sent your way!

Many thanks to The White Room salon in Coventry who I am booked in for March :D
