Story

Within the next year, millions of children will be born. Thousands of these will be diagnosed with cancer before they hit their 4th birthdays. The effects of chemotherapy can be very unpleasent, however for a young girl who should be trying out new hairstyles with her friends, the most distressing side effect of all is hair loss.

Children suffering from cancer are entitled to recieve one synthetic wig on the NHS which do not look very authentic. Thus, there is a great need for high quality real human hair, but this is expensive and difficult to obtain.

The Little Princess Trust was set up to provide children suffering with cancer real hair wigs. It relies on public donations, and so for the next year, we will be growing our hair down to our bums for this cause.

As we do this, we'd also appreciate any sponsorship, and all proceeds will go to Cancer Rsearch. Anything- big or small is appreciated!!

Lots of love,
Nat and Anna :)
