Story

Just over two years ago my sister, Katie, died after a four year battle with a brain tumour. She had many rounds of chemotherapy which caused her hair to fall out on more than one occasion. The princess trust gifted Katie a wig which was styled just for her and I made her a promise that I would shave off my hair and donate it to the princess trust. 

Katie will be 16 years old on the 22nd January and I felt I needed to celebrate her special day in some way so it's time the hair came off. 

As it's a special birthday I would like to use my head shave as an opportunity to fund raise for little havens, a place that was very important to Katie and our family, by asking for sponsorship. 

Having your head shaved is a big deal for most. It's a massive deal for women as their hair is part of who they are, it's an enormous thing for as I have autism. The mere thought of someone touching my hair scares me so please dig deep and show me your support.
