Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. My aim is to reach £500.00 then I will shave!

My name is Claire I'm 46 and I am living with two heart conditions. One  was a complex one I was born with and one is a recent condition that is serious and rare. I now have pulmonary arterial hypertension and it is now terminal for me. Obviously that makes me a highly vulnerable person and I am in lockdown for 12 weeks!

I have spent several weeks in intensive care units throughout my life and know how hard these doctors and nurses work. They are under extreme pressure at normal times but now they have to protect themselves. 

I have wanted to shave my head for many years but have worked in office jobs until 3 years ago when I started my own business. If I get out of this with just a shaved head I will be extremely grateful. 

Spurred on by my two best friends now seems a good time to do it - even though my hairdresser of 10 years may not like it! lol  

My goal target is £500. Anything you can donate will help the people on the front line. They say we will all know someone or know of someone who gets it.

Help me reach my goal!! Please donate...
