I work as a nurse for Older Persons Mental Health which assesses and treats people over the age of 65 with mental health conditions such as dementia, schitzophrenia and personality disorders to name a few. Not only do these diagnosis affect our patients, they affect their families too. I know this first hand as my grandad had dementia before he passed away and it was hard watching his mental deterioratIon. 

I am going to shave my head to try and raise £2000 for the older persons mental health wards in Heddfan, Wrexham Maelor hospital. This money will go towards activities for our patients and medical equipment to improve the experience for our amazing patients whilst they are an inpatient with us. 

Please help donate. I only need 400 people to donate a fiver to reach my target and it will benefit our wards so much. Anyone who knows me knows I value my looks and find confidence in them- almost like a shell to hide behind. By shaving my hair I am willing to allow myself to feel completely vulnerable, just like my patients must feel every day.
