Story

Hello, my name is Lilly Elson, I'm 13 years old and I want to make a difference. 

How? I can hear you ask.... I am going to have my hair shaved off and hopefully, through sponsorship, I'll raise lots of money for Manx Cancer Help.  Then I will donate my hair to the Little Princess Trust to make a wig out of it.

I will also undertake other fundraising events in order to raise more money.

I want to raise money AND awareness because not everybody understands the challenges faced by people with cancer and their families. I lost my grandma to cancer and it was so difficult, and I want to do everything I can to help others in a similar situation. I also want to make someone feel confident in a lovely wig, as I know it must be hard for people who lost their hair to cancer and the disadvantages they experience.

If you could show your support by sponsoring me or spreading the word about what I'm trying to achieve, it would be greatly appreciated .

Because together we can make a difference! 

Thank you for visiting my just giving page.
