The time has come, the Walrus said, to speak of many things, such as growing your hair as long as you can and then cutting it off so that children suffering from hair loss can benefit from high-quality wigs. The Little Princess Trust (www.littleprincesses.org.uk) provides real hair wigs free of charge to children and young adults who have lost their hair due to cancer treatment and other illnesses. I have been growing my hair specifically for the purpose of donating it and now we’re on the home stretch. The date for “the chop“ is 25th May.

As well as donating my hair to The Little Princess Trust, I am also hoping to raise funds for another amazing cause - the Humanitea Cafe (find details on facebook), a cafe that will support homelessness in Bristol.
