Story

Every day, ten children and young people in the UK receive the devastating news they have cancer.

Treatment usually starts immediately, often miles away from home. It is frightening, gruelling and can last for up to three years. It turns worlds upside down, inside out and back to front.

If that's not bad enough, treatment frequently leads to the young person's hair falling out, further impacting on their life.

Since 2010, hundreds of supporters like you have helped young cancer patients by doing crazy things with their own hair. Shaves, mohawks, rocking crops, they've done it all and raised over £400,000 for CLIC Sargent in the process.

Now it is YOUR turn

Show your solidarity by taking part in The Big Buzz, changing your hair and becoming a Life Shaver.

This year we are aiming to raise £200,000 to enable CLIC Sargent to continue providing vital, life-changing support to as many families as possible.
