My story

 

If Ed Bridges can raise £1000 in charity donations, he'll grow his hair for a year...

Ed has agreed that he will shave his head for the last time on Wednesday 24th June and - if the money rolls in - he'll leave it growing (and growing, and growing, and growing) until 24th June 2010, after which time he may or may not decide to have it cut into a mullet.

This will not only benefit charity (see below), but also me as his wife, who is desperate to run her hands through his luscious locks once more.

The money raised will go to the Lord Mayor's designated charity for 2009/10, Bobath Childrens Therapy Centre Wales, who care for children with cerebral palsy.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor: Bobath Childrens Therapy Centre Wales gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor Ed now!
