One Big Head Shave Save · 1 January 2020

We are the UK’s leading ovarian cancer research charity. In the UK only 1 in 3 women live more than 10 years after diagnosis. We are working to better prevent, treat and detect ovarian cancer, so that by 2032 at least half of women with ovarian cancer live for 10 years.

Story

Hi to all,

My name is Matthew Lovett and 5 years ago a close family friend came to my family and shared to us that she had Cancer and it was in early stages.

A very strong woman who had achieved a number of things in her life. It was bizarre to see her struggle with this life, with the weakness. But more importantly the person who she saw in the mirror was different. The person who had once had long blonde hair was now completely bald and would continue to be until she passed away. People shouldn't feel bad about the way they look when experiencing a de-habilitating disease. So please help, if you can. To stand for strength, to stand in numbers and to show that its okay to not have hair. It's okay to be afraid of it. We will always support you with all the strength and love we can possibly give you. We love you and we will make sure you love yourself, whatever your situation.

Please join me on January 1st. Come shave your head, or donate some money. Every little helps.

Matt
