Chris Thomas is going to be braving the shave at the end of this year to raise money for Prostate Cymru.
Retired Policeman Chris has decided not to cut his hair for the entirety of 2020 as a fun fundraising idea and after shaving it off, will be donating his hair to the Little Princess Trust for it to be made into a wig.
Speaking about his fundraiser, Chris said “I decided that with how 2020 was going, I wanted to do something positive, like fundraising, from the comfort of my own home. Growing my hair out was something I wasn’t able to do whilst on the force and I decided now was a great time to do it.”

The charity sector has been hit hard by recent events and as a result we have lost a significant amount of fundraising this year due to lockdown restrictions and social distancing measures.
People like Chris taking on challenges are a massive help and we are so grateful for their fundraisers as they help us raise the funds needed to fulfil our core aims of raising awareness and supporting treatments and improving equipment for prostate diseases.
PLEASE ADHERE TO THE LATEST COVID-19 GUIDELINES WHEN FUNDRAISING. PROSTATE CYMRU DOES NOT SUPPORT ANY FUNDRAISING EVENTS THAT ARE NOT COMPLIANT WITH THE MOST RECENT RULES AROUND SOCIAL DISTANCING.
