Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.
I will be having my hair shaved off on March 8th to raise money for the Lingen Davies Appeal which supports cancer care at The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital.
In August 2007, my wife Lorna was diagnosed with breast cancer and following an operation to remove the cancerous lump she has been having a course of chemotherapy at the cancer care centre at The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital.
Following this chemotherapy treatment she will undergo a course of radiotherapy, followed by tamoxifen and herceptin.
We have both found all of the staff at the centre extremely professional and very caring and Lorna has also spent time at the Hamar Centre where she has met other people suffering from similar conditions, all of whom have been a great support.
I am hoping to raise as much money as possible through the shaving of my head and if the total amount exceeds £500 then.........my prized goatee will go as well.
UPDATE:
The shave took place as planned and no blood was shed.
Photographs from the night can be seen on my Flickr stream which is linked on the left hand side of the screen.
Thanks to everyone who has supported us and donated and if you are visiting here for the first time then please feel free to add to the sponsorship despite the fact that the sponsored deed has been done!
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Lingen Davies Cancer Relief Fund will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
So please sponsor me now!
Many thanks for your support.
