We are there when it matters to support people through dying or grief.

Story

Update 19th January

So Henry has been a super star and as a result we have both had our heads shaved.

This is what we looked like before:

This is what we looked like afterwards:

Videos will be uploaded soon…. But for now THANK YOU for your generosity, we are very close to the £5000 target. Special thanks to Henry’s employers RG Carters who have been incredibly supportive and also to Harry / Vallos for making it happen.

Update 18th January

So tomorrow (Friday 19th) is the big day…the clippers are getting ready.

Update 12th January

So we have got together this weekend and talked strategy…. The reality is that there isn’t one…. It will be a brutal shave, but for Henry there is going to be ‘guest’ barber in action (more detail to follow)... For those who are sceptical (yes there are some of you) there are questions if I still have hair …. so in response please see below the photo from this weekend.

Both Steve & Henry are shaving their heads for this great cause as a result of cancer impacting our family. Please feel free to sponsor either Henry or Steve, or even both, it would be greatly appreciated.

On behalf of both of us THANK YOU for anything you can spare & give to this wonderful charity.
