Story

Surfer dudes Monty and Joe ( who like to believe that they are twins but are actually cousins ) both have long, luscious blonde hair and they are ready to shave it off to show their solidarity to my fabulous sister Anna, who is currently undergoing gruelling Chemotherapy as a result of  her recent Breast Cancer Diagnosis. She has lost her hair. If anyone knows Joe or Monty, you will know that their hair is their crowning glory and shaving it off could be compared to Samson having his shaved!! This is is no mean feat for these boys. 

Anna's daughter Matilda also is chopping a whopping 8 inches off her hair and donating it to a charity which specialises in making  real hair wigs for children and young people with cancer and other conditions. 

Please give what you can to support this fantastic charity. There is a Maggie's Centre in Oxford which is providing excellent advice and support to Anna and her family at the moment.
