Story
For those that know us you will be aware that my superhero husband Richard has been fighting the evil that is cancer for eight years. So, he has already lost his voice box so can't talk..he is currently receiving palliative care but this time he is going to lose his hair... . Due to our love of Ferocious Dog we have become aware of the issues around PTSD and would also like to support the LBMF as well as the obvious Cancer Charity. So instead of his hair falling out to no good use he will be having his much treasured hair shaved off...On the 17th of December
But not just anywhere...At Ferocious Dog's own festival, DOGFEST and there is the chance of a well know barber... Please give generously,

7 years agoMy superhero is currently residing care of the NHS as he has had an infection and because of the chemo can't fight it on his own but will hopefully be home tomorrow...... the wee gathering I mentioned on NYE raised over £100 and we are now so so close to £4,500..... a nice round figure...... this would mean that, after the fees for this page, the sum of £2,137.50 went to each of the charities Thank you to everyone who has supported this..... you have made the Ashford-Martin household smile

Two amazing charities, one amazing man. ........Oh, and I know where the ponytail is :-) :-)

7 years agoWell we have certainly kicked that target, the figure raised, so far is just phenomenal and I cannot thank every one of you enough. As promised a bucket was shaken on Saturday and the Hell Hounds donated over £500 on the night. A friend shaved her head too in a wonderful show of solidarity and raised us another £100. This just giving page remains for a few days yet so please please keep sharing and spreading the word. My superhero is getting used to his new look and my heart bursts with pride whenever I look at him.
