Hi - Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've decided to lose my beard to help raise funds for Yorkhill Children's Foundation to support my pal Ben.

The big shave will take place right after I'm back from my European tour on  Friday 4  May, 11am at Alice Rocks Hairdressing, Gibson Street, Glasgow where John Comerford will give yours truly a clean shave (I haven't been completely beardless for more than 20 years!)

And to make the whole thing  bit more fun, if anyone would like to be in the running for the chance make the first cut (of my beard, that is!) you're gonna have to donate at least 20 quid and note your desire and availability on Friday 4 May (11am) at Alice Rocks to do the dastardly deed. 

At 5pm on Tuesday 1 May we'll put all the qualifying names in a hat and pull out a 'winner' who will be invited along to cut off the big long bit of my beard!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
