Crop Shop

After three months of fundraising, the big day came on Tuesday. Tina marched off to Pablo Alvarez' salon on Bridge Street to get her lovely locks lopped for charity.

Tina had originally set out to raise £5,000 for cancer charity Brainstrust. If she achieved that, she promised the shave her head completely! Perhaps that worked out as reverse psychology (plenty of people offered her money to keep her hair) because Tina missed her target. However, she still raised a whopping £620 and managed to help raise Brainstrust's profile with her exploits.

Fortunately reporters from the Hampshire Chronicle were on sight to record Pablo's handiwork.

Thanks to everybody who donated money to Tina's fundraising! See the results here.
