Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Some people say I am mad, but I have decided to do someting very rash. On the 30th April I am going to have my head shaved in an assembly at 'Totley Primary School'. Why am I doing this? Dominic McGrail, a year 3 pupil at Totley Primary School where I work as a Whole School Assistant, has recently been diagnosed with Leukemia, as you can imagine this has been a big shock to him and his family. Despite this he  has very rarely missed a day of school since he started his treatment, and is always smiling and happy. He has lost all his hair but this has not bothered him. The staff at Sheffield Children's Hospital have been fantastic with him. I want to support the hospital and help Dominic and other Children like him.

Incidentally I have another personal reason to help this Charity 21 years ago on the 9th April my daughter Natalie spent 5 days in Intensive care on a life support machine, I am so, so  grateful to the loving and caring staff that saved her life.

 So please, please help me to raise money for this very worthwhile charity Any amount you can give would be fantastic.
