A KIND local 10-year-old has raised £387 for the charity, Little Princess Trust.

Ellie Haward decided to have her hair cut, which she wanted to donate to the charity which makes wigs from real hair for children who have lost their own hair through illness.

The charity also funds research into childhood cancers.

With a lot of support from friends and family and the teachers at her primary school in Newton St Cyres, Ellie was able to raise the money for the charity.

Ellie’s “Charity Chop” took place on Thursday, December 17, with hairdresser, Laura Elston.
