Like many others, I have not been personally affected by cancer in any way and can't begin to understand the pain that both the sufferer feels as well as all the friends and family.

However, stories are passed around each day and I want to help make sure that this won't be the case in the future, by raising money for Cancer Research who work so hard to prevent anyone else going through the trauma.

So on the 24th July, I'm going to shave my head to offer both psychological and financial support for the people who unfortunately have to fight this disease every single day.
