Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!
So for about the last ten years I have been growing my hair.  I have always wanted my hair to reach a particular length and I have been blessed with good health to achieve it.  However some people aren't just as fortunate.  
As a result of treatment for cancer, most children will suffer hair loss as a side effect.  No child should feel different to any other and that is why at Easter I will be having 8 inches of my hair cut off to donate to Little Princess Trust in order to make wigs that are tailor made for each child.  Each wig made from donated hair is given to the charity free of charge so that a child can feel confident and beautiful whilst they battle cancer.
The Little Princess Trust also buys wigs, costing on average £350 per wig.  This is why I would like to raise some money for them as well.  I would love it if  you could donate as much or a little as you can as it all goes towards an amazing cause!  If you are a UK taxpayer, please remember to select Gift Aid so that the charity receives as much as possible.
Thank you so much for your donations and support in advance!
