Story
On the 9th of April, I will be shaving my hair to raise money to fund my girlfriend's treatment for an inoperable grade 4 brain tumour.
My girlfriend, Charlotte Taylor, has recently been diagnosed with a grade 4 glioblastoma - a rare and inoperable brain tumour.
Many measures, including a black tie dinner evening, sponsored runs, and a live music event organised by Holly, Charlotte's sister, are being taken to raise money to fund treatment available abroad for Charlotte. These treatments include immunotherapy and Tumour Treating Fields (TTF).
After her initial diagnosis, being informed that chemotherapy would be the likely course of action, I promised Charlotte that I'd shave off my hair when her's began to fall out.
I shall be keeping this promise, and in doing so, I aim to raise money to help fund Charlotte's treatment.
All contributions are greatly appreciated. Over £20,000 has been raised so far thanks to the generosity of 835 wonderful people, a tremendous figure that we'd never expected to reach.
It is my hope to raise £1,000 to add to this number, moving us one step closer to taking Charlotte abroad to seek treatment.
Thank you to all people that have donated so far. Without your contributions, our options would be very limited.
It really means the world to us all.

6 years agoInitially I only hoped to raise £200. After four weeks, we've reached £3,745 thanks to the generous donations of so many wonderful people. I've decided, since Over £2,500 has been donated just today, and the head-shave story has only just made the papers, to keep the fundraising open for another few weeks. With treatment options on the horizon set to cost a very large sum of money, these donations are giving us all hope. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everybody that has given money or shared the story.
