My story

On Saturday 25th July, I will be having my head shaved bald (and maybe my beard too, if people give me enough money for it...) to raise money for Cancer Research. This is part of a two-day event to be held at the Carpenter's Arms in Windsor, which will also include a raffle with great prizes, live music, and someone else getting a fully body wax! Everyone is welcome.

Please donate all you can to this worthwhile cause!

My story:

With both my father and my auntie (also my godmother) fighting cancer over the past two years, it made me realise that cancer can affect anybody, including two strong people like my dad and my auntie. So I decided to do something about it, and helped to organise this event.

I love my long hair (even though other people don't!), but I thought it was a suitable sacrifice to try to raise some support for Cancer Research. So off it comes!

Please sponsor me for as much as you can, to help my dad and auntie and people like them. (And also to justify the haircut!)
