Henry's fundraiser and hair donation for The Little Princess Trust

Henry Sinclair-Banks is raising money for Little Princess Trust
“Donating hair to The Little Princess Trust”

on 7 August 2025

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

Story

On Thursday 7th August 2025, I will be cutting and donating my hair to The Little Princess Trust. I believe in their mission to provide real hair wigs to children who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or to other conditions such as alopecia. I also chose to fundraise for this charity because I want to support their approach to funding research projects.

By the time I cut my hair, I will have been growing it for 948 days! On 2nd January 2023, I got a number 1 buzz cut and I've not cut it since. It has been a fun journey of awkward hair styles, and more recently a dedication to conditioner and man buns. You can see progress pictures in the photos album (top right of this page).

I was inspired to grow my hair and donate it because I've seen the difference it makes to those who need a wig. This was certainly true for my mum during her cancer treatment; the quality of life difference she experienced was remarkable!

Alongside this, I am fundraising for two other charities: Polska Akcja Humanitarna and Médecins Sans Frontières. I have enjoyed raising money for charity before and I'm hoping this will be my most successful fundraiser yet. I wish to raise a combined total of £5000 (€5800 or 25000zł) across the three charities. I need your support to achieve this goal!

Thank you for your time and consideration! Every donation matters to me and really matters to those who need it.
