A schoolboy from Lewis – who had gone a year without a haircut – has shed his locks to help other children.
Twelve year old Charlie MacMillan from Point chose to support The Princess Trust who make wigs for children with cancer and is also fundraising for The Leanne Fund at the same time.
Charlie had his hair cut by Moira Matheson, Attic Hair Studio, Stornoway.
Chrisetta Mitchell, Development Manager of The Leanne Fund said: “We are so grateful to Charlie for choosing to support The Leanne Fund through his challenge as well. “His efforts to help other children in need are inspiring.”
The Leanne Fund was set up in 2009 in memory of Leanne Mitchell from the Isle of Lewis.
The charity funds special treats and a range of support services for young people affected by Cystic Fibrosis and their families across the region.
