Story

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to see my page. I am planning to shave my head. I’ll then donate the 29 inches of my hair to the Princess Trust in order for it to be made into wigs for children who have lost their hair through illness or treatment. I want to raise as much money as I can for Salisbury District Stars Appeal. 

At the beginning of the year, my amazing mum was diagnosed with breast cancer. It has rocked our family to the core. Most of us know how hideous cancer is and how gruelling the treatment is too. Not only is mum going through her treatment, but she and many, many others are doing this without their families and friends around them due to the current pandemic. I’m sure like me, lots of people are feeling useless to our loved ones. We all wish we could do more to support mum and one way I’m hoping to do that is to raise money for a great cause. My mum is receiving fantastic care at Salisbury District Hospital where the Stars Appeal raise funds tirelessly to finance expensive medical  equipment, including a specialist breast Unit. 

Please support me in raising more money for them so they can continue with their wonderful work, treating and saving the lives of our loved ones. Thank you.
