The Little Princess Trust provides real hair wigs, free of charge, to children and young people who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or to other conditions such as Alopecia.

The charity is also one of the largest funders of childhood cancer research in the UK.

It costs, on average, £700 to provide one wig to a child or young person. This cost covers the making, fitting and styling of the wig. The Little Princess Trust covers all costs to ensure the service is completely free for all wig recipients - but they can only do this thanks to amazing supporters like yourself.

I plan to grow my hair for another 5-6 months, until I'm ready to donate at least 12 inches (30 cms) of hair, and would be really grateful if you could help me raise the £700 needed to cover the cost of making a wig :)
