Story

Thank you so much for your generous donation to Marie Curie. Thanks to supporters like you, every minute of every day someone with cancer or a terminal illness is cared for by a Marie Curie Nurse.The support we received meant that last year, we were able to care for over 40,000 people free of charge in their homes and at our hospices.

I am going to shave my hair off to raise funds for Marie Curie because fundraising has been dramatically reduced by the coronavirus lockdown.  Charity shops have temporarily closed, street collections and fundraising events have stopped.  

The more money I raise, the shorter the shave.  We have 5 different grading lengths for our clippers. If I raise up to £100, we will use grade 4 (, up to £200 grade 3,  up to £300 grade 2, up to £400 grade 1, up to £500 grade 1/2.  If I raise over £500, I will let my sons shave my head with a razor!!
