We're the UK’s only youth-focused breast cancer awareness charity, on a mission to get every young person checking their chest. We want all young people to know the signs and see their GP if they notice any changes. We do this because early detection saves lives.

Story

I Am Going To Shave My Head For Charity in October/November this Year, I Hope to get lots of sponsours i aim to raise at least £1000 so I'm letting everyone know about it now to get as many people involved as possible!
I'd like to do it in a public place so lots of people can enjoy my experience and donate their hard earned money for a great cause.
I'd like to film it so that everyone will be able to see the fun people have in shaving my hair off!
Coppafeel is the charity i would like to donate to; it is a charity aiming to raise young people's awareness of breast cancer in order to prevent the fatality of breast cancer. Their website is www.coppafeel.org so you can check out what they will do with the money that we will give them.
In the past well and the present my friends have given me money to do what we called 'crazy' things like weeing in random and public places, eating an onion, running around hardly dressed and other stuff i can't even remember, none of these things seem 'out-going' at all compared to what I'm about to do, well in 5 months or so! But i do have some videos of these things that ii might put on here just for laughs!
I Know I will look totally different for at least a few years, Ive never had my hair shorter than sholder length before so it's going to be a real change for me, but i hope that the money i raise will help other people's lives and if this is the case, what is me having no hair for a while, to helping people identify cancer and seek help, and ultimately save themselves from the evil that is cancer.
Please Join The Group if you would like to sponsor me, and maybe shave some of my head yourself!
Email me If you want to get involved or anything, I'll have a sponsorship form, and as its not going to be until October you have lots of time to decide if you'd like to sponsor and I'll have time to build up my courage!
I Hope no one finds my idea offensive and realises that I feel shaving my head is something that is feasable and will effect me enough to be worthy of your sponsorship.
Thank You ! :D
If anyone has any ideas of how i could get more sponsors or make it more public please let me know because Im not quite sure of how to go about it yet!
