Saskia is 12 and has never had her hair cut. She has decided it's time for a change.

She's donating her hair to a charity that makes wigs for children who have lost their hair to cancer treatment.

Saskia also decided to try and sponsor the event for a second charity. Saskia's brother has autism, and while he can cope without an assistance dog, we see the huge amount of joy and comfort our three dogs bring him.

It costs in excess of £20,000 to train and support each dog, and the charity relies entirely on donations. Each dog can change the life of not only its person, but the life of the whole family unit. We are really grateful for any help you may feel able to provide. Thank you.
