Colour For Cancer
Campaign by Royal Free Charity (RCN 1165672)
Every patient and every day matters. Our Colour for cancer campaign is to recognise that all patients, whatever type of cancer they are coping with, deserve the best environment for treatment and the latest equipment for diagnosis and treatment.

Story

On the 30th May 2019, my dad lost his fight to cancer, however as much as on this day next month i'm bound to be overwhelmed with heartache, there is not one day that goes by where i dont think of him, and want to mark the occasion and do something positive... also my hair is growing extremely quick rate and so putting the two together i decided as i cannot see me getting to a barbers any time soon instead ill shave my head on video on 30th of May a tribute to my Dad,  and hopefully raise some money in the process for a charity.

UPDATE: Thanks to all those who have sponsored me so far, so on the 30th i will be shaving both my head and beard, however i would love to double the target so if we reach £500 by the 22nd of May i pledge to dye my head and beard the colour which gets the most votes on facebook. 

UPDATE 2: Sadly did not hit the £500 so no Dye... but all well still keep raising money.. Ordered the trimmer yesterday :)

So 

On the 30th May ill be shaving both my head and beard!
