Story

Thank you for visiting my page.I’m supporting Sarcoma UK, a national charity that funds vital research, offers support for anyone affected by sarcoma cancer and campaigns for better treatments. Sarcoma is a type of cancer that develops in the bone and soft tissue. It is difficult to diagnose and one of the hardest to treat. By supporting me, we can help change this. Your donation will help researchers find answers, keep our Support Line open, and raise awareness to improve treatment and standards of care.Thank you for your support.

My precious Grandad, Derek Giles passed away in November after a tough battle with the nasty cancer called Sarcoma. 

There is not enough funding to research this aggressive and fast growing horrible disease that took my Grandad away from us and it was my Grandads last wish to me, to have my long hair cut, donate it to charity to make cancers patients their very own wigs and to donate the money raised to SARCOMA UK. 

Grandad also asked me to do this on his birthday which is 28th January in memory of him. 

My Grandad was the most amazing man I know and the best Grandad ever, and I feel honoured that he asked me to do this. 

It will be scary as I have always had long hair but I’m doing this for the most influential man I know. 

Any donation big or small will be gratefully received, so Thankyou from the bottom of my heart 💜 

I love you Grandad.
