Story

Updated on Nov 16th 2012 at 6:17 PM from the JustGiving API

I did it! It was quite scary and I could hear every cut, which made it worse! However, I'm pleased with the end result and thanks to you lovely people, I've exceeded my target! There are 10 ponytails in bags ready to post off tomorrow! Xx

I'm cutting my hair!!! Big deal you may say. I'm cutting at least 12 inches off my hair to raise money for Children in Need, a charity that my school, Milford Haven School, always raises thousands for each year! So your donated money will be heading to this fabulous charity.

Where will my hair end up? Hopefully in a wig that will be worn by a little girl that needs it. The hair that will be cut off is going to be sent to Little Princess.org who make wigs for children who may have had cancer. My inspiration for giving it to this charity is my 5 year old niece who is in love with her long hair. The thought that some poor little girls cannot grow their own lovely long locks is quite upsetting, so, I'm doing what I can by giving them mine!

Your donation will be greatly received! Thank you! xxx
