Story

On the 24th May 2021, a huge hole was left in our hearts when our friend's little boy Milo, passed due to a paediatric brain tumour.

Milo and and our four year old daughter Riley have been friends since birth due to our closeness with Milo's family..... who have had to endure the most unimaginable hardships and grief after loosing not only Milo, but Milo's big brother Oscar and their incredible Daddy Ian, all to brain tumours.

It's an incredibly sad reality that for our children, cancer, chemotherapy and hair loss is something that they have experience with and understand having experienced it first hand with family and friends.

Riley approached us a couple of weeks ago, and asked ''if she could give her hair to a little kid like Milo..... because her's will 'grow back' and she 'has lots''......... Riley my sweet darling, that's something that you CAN do........

So, on the 15th July 2021.... Riley will be getting 'THE BIG CHOP' after four years of having the most glorious, long thick hair!!!

She is donating her hair to The Little Princess Trust, who make free wigs for children experiencing hair loss, and she hopes to raise a few pennies along the way for Oscar's Paediatric Brain Tumour Charity who help children and families... just like Oscar and Milo...

So please, spare a moment and do something incredible xxx

Lots of love from Riley x
