Mayor to make the cut — all for a good cause
The Mayor of Kirklees has made the snip decision to donate her hair to charity and raise money for her chosen cause in the process.
During their year in office, the Mayor chooses to support a charity of their choice. This year, Cllr Nosheen Dad has been raising awareness and funds for the Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice.
Now, she has decided to have her hair cut to raise funds for the hospice but also donate her locks to the Little Princess Trust.
Cllr Dad said:
“The difficulties facing hospices throughout the country have been well documented. Whilst it has been important for me to raise funds alongside awareness of the work carried out by the hospice, I felt it was important for me to really go out there and give something personal and part of me towards my fundraising efforts.
“I have therefore decided to donate my long and luscious locks to The Little Princess Trust.
“The Little Princess Trust provides free real hair wigs to children and young people, up to 24 years, who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or other conditions.”
