Lonnie shaves his head! · 13 October 2013

It's bewildering and unsettling for anyone going into hospital but especially for children and that is why we are a fundraising hospital. We raise funds to enhance the experience of our patients by providing state of the art medical equipment and facilities and creating a child-friendly environment.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As many of you may know I am due to start chemotherapy during October, thankfully for me that should be the end of my cancer journey. Sadly however, that isn't the case for the 1600 children diagnosed with cancer every year, including my son.
These children often have to endure over 18 months of gruelling chemotherapy as well as many surgeries and other treatments.

I have decided to shave my head before my treatment starts to raise money for the children treated on Ward 15 (Oncology) at Birmingham Children's Hospital. These children have the most positive outlook on life and are a true inspiration. All money raised will be donated towards the Children's Cancer Centre Appeal.

Please consider donating - I know I don't have much hair to start with, but these children deserve it!
