Story

Hi guys.

In a month's time, I'm taking the plunge and cutting ten years worth of dreadlocks off my head! 

I've chosen to raise money for Alzheimer's Support, which is a small charity working in Wiltshire to support people with dementia, as well as their families. As I'm sure you all know, dementia affects a huge amount of families, and the work done by groups like Alzheimer's Support hugely increases their quality of life.

Due to limited, shrinking public funding, Alzheimer's Support fills the gap by providing quality specialist support. They were there for my Grandpa as his dementia progressed, and equally supported my Grandma while she tirelessly cared for him. This is my attempt to repay them for this.

I've set the target at £1000, to make the cold sweats I'm experiencing every time I think about cutting off all my hair worth it!!

Highest donations are welcome to come and cut off the dread of their choice. Take it away as a souvenir, if you like! Make yourself a nice bracelet.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thanks for your support. :)
