Story

Thanks for taking the time to Daisy's JustGiving page.

Daisy is my daughter and is desperate to have her long hair cut short, but she wants to help others too in the process.

Daisy has been growing her hair and finally after never having a big cut in her 6yrs it is long enough to be cut and donated to The Little Princess Trust who makes hair pieces/wigs with donated hair for children who have lost there hair via cancer treatment /illness or other conditions.

Daisy is wanting to raise as much money as possible so that it can be divided between The Little Princess Trust and also Milly's Smiles.

Milly's Smiles is a beautiful charity set up by my best friend Lorraine, who keeps her beautiful daughters memory alive with the love and dedication through Milly's Smiles, where beautiful bags are given to children when admitted in to hospital for a cancer related illness.

The bags are given on arrival and has everything needed to support the family and there child in those early days when everything is unknown and scary. Currently bags are given out at Manchester Childrens hospital, AlderHey Childrens hospital, and Leeds & Nottingham Childrens hospital.

Every year over 4200 children are diagnosed with cancer and mostly in the North west region, so every bag massively helps each and every child and family where the hospital stay could be for long periods.

Any small amount can make a difference.

September is Childhood cancer awareness month so it seems fitting to have Daisys hair cut at the end of September to raise as much money as possible, thanks so much in advance
