Neal grows (and shaves) his head for the NHS!, 18 May 2022
We raise money for NHS Charities to help our NHS go further.

Story

In March 2021, gap's Area Manager Neal (Ned) started growing his hair off the back of a flimsy Covid based dare. Now, he's ready to cut it all off to raise some money for our incredible NHS.

Ned said...

"In March 2021, I was challenged to grow my hair until my 40th birthday, to see if I could raise some money for charity. Being the stubborn so and so I am, I took up that challenge, and here we are. I haven’t cut my hair since March 2021, and my hair has become a talking point with everyone I meet. However, my 40th birthday is fast approaching and I now need to cash my curly locks in, to help what I believe is the greatest, and most put upon organisation in the UK, our wonderful NHS. We’ve all used the NHS, and we all owe something to the staff who work within it, who have been nothing but exceptional under the most difficult circumstances imaginable. If you can spare a few quid, to see a grown man go from having a fine head of hair, to losing his Samson like powers overnight, in support of our NHS heroes, I’d be really grateful".

Thanks for the support everyone.
