Story

Our beautiful daughter, Holly Lily-Ann started growing her hair at a young age in preparation to donate it to this wonderful charity. There was never any doubt that she might regret cutting the first 15 inches she donated (whilst at primary school) because - in Holly’s words - “ I’m not worried about my hair being too short, because someone else will have some of my hair and my hair will grow back, but theirs might not. That’s why I’m doing it mummy” We were so proud of her.

She then had another idea said “Mummy - your hair is as long as mine………you could do it with me!” So….. WE did!

Our very own princess’s hair grew again and she wanted to go short again. Naturally, with no doubt, she cut it to donate again to the charity.

We, Holly’s parents are asking you to help us to help raise as much money as we can for The Little Princess Trust, as it’s a charity that Holly supported selflessly and quietly.

The Little Princess Trust provides real hair wigs, free of charge, to children and young people who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or to other conditions such as Alopecia.

The charity is also one of the largest funders of childhood cancer research in the UK.

The Little Princess Trust relies solely on the generosity of its wonderful supporters who help the charity give monetary and hair donations and HOPE to so many children and young people with cancer each year.
