Cutting 12inches of hair off · 19 December 2019

The Little Princess Trust provides real hair wigs, free of charge, to children and young people who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or to other conditions. The charity is also one of the largest funders of childhood cancer research in the UK.

Story

This is our 9 year old daughter Lexi, she has been growing her hair pretty much her whole life, it is her absolute pride and joy. She has refused over and over throughout the years to get her hair cut, only having 2/3 previous hair cuts and only allowing the ends to be trimmed at that. 

Recently Lexi told us she had decided she would like to get her hair cut, but only if she could donate it to the little princesses trust to be made into a wig to help someone less fortunate than her. 

Lexi has previously been moved to tears by the thought of a few cm's being trimmed from her hair but this time, as it's going to a great cause, Lexi has decided to donate 12 inches of her hair! 

We have done our research and found out that it cost the little princesses trust around £550 per wig, to make. Lexi asked if she could fundraise, as well as donate her hair, to help pay for the cost of making her donated hair into a wig. 

Any little helps, please donate, if you can't donate please share and help raise awareness for children's cancer!! 

When a child loses their hair to cancer or another condition, we'll be there with a free, real hair wig to help restore their confidence and identity. We won't stop until the research that we fund ends childhood cancer forever. Promise.Please visit us at www.littleprincesses.org.uk to find out how you can help us give young people back what cancer takes away.The Trust relies solely on the efforts of enthusiastic community fundraisers. We receive no formal funding. Please help to raise money for us so that we can help more families.
