I have been growing my beard for the last 12 months. It is now glorious, but all good things must come to an end.
I'm looking to raise money for Yeleni which is a Herefordshire charity that assists people suffering with cancer by offering free complimentary therapies to go alongside their treatment. This year Yeleni received a Queen's Award which is an extremely prestigious award, celebrating its service to the community.
The reason I am aiming to raise £315 is that this will cover the cost of 9 treatments for one individual who attends the centre. If I were to raise more than this, all extra funds will go towards the costs of treatment for another individual.
I am proposing to dye my beard in the middle of December, keeping it colourful for the whole of the festive period. I am aiming to get as many colours as possible. If you have a particular colour preference, please note it as part of your donation and I'll try to accommodate as many as possible (beard permitting).
In the new year I will then be shaving the whole thing off, giving my chin its first glimpse of sunlight in a year.
Alexander's Barbershop (Widemarsh Street, Hereford) are going to be assisting with the dye procedure for which I am very grateful.
Please consider donating to this charity, which I feel offers a very unique service to those that need it.
Thanks for all donations, however big or small.
