Shaving off the ginger locks for the Mental Health Foundation!

Manawatu / Whanganui

Kia Ora everyone!

For those that don't know I started growing my hair out in 2016 with the intention of growing out a length long enough to donate to be made into a wig

... well 4 years later and it has yet to see a pair of scissors but the time has finally come!

When thinking about which charity I was going to fundraise for, I really wanted to do something with mental health. Almost one third of New Zealanders suffer or have suffered from mental health issues, and the Mental Health Foundation do some awesome work in raising awareness, breaking down stigmas and advocating for those suffering from mental health issues. They're a great cause and deserve all the support they can get. You can find out a bit about them here https://www.mentalhealth.org.nz/home/about/. Every dollar will be much appreciated!

PS: ETA on the shave is around Christmas after my placement at a rest home as to not scare the elderly to death

Cheers everyone!
