Story

Anyone who knows me will know that I have had always had long hair all the way down to my bum (apart from in year 9 when I decided to bleach it blonde and cut it all off... bad move!). I am going to donate 12 inches of my hair to Little Princess Trust which is a Trust that supports young children who are suffering from hair loss due to illness. My hair will be made into a wig. A child's wig can cost up to £2,000! Before picture is now uploaded onto site.. after pictures to follow! Eeeeeeee nerve racking!!

Me and my mother Julia are running the Race For Life in a bid to raise money to help beat cancer. We are not only running for the people who have already suffered or who are currently suffering but those who are in recovery and those people in the future who have not yet heard the dreaded "it's cancer" words. We are raising money for help, support, equipment, technology and medication. 

No donation is too big or too small because at the end of the day, all those pennies add up and one day we will beat cancer! Every penny donated goes directly to Cancer Research UK. Please donate! A penny or a pound - every little helps. Thank you so much for taking time to visit our page! ---
