A SCHOOLGIRL is raising money to help fight cancer by shaving off her hair in memory of her aunty who died two weeks before she was born.
Hollie Jessop, 15, of James Street, Honeywell, is taking part in the Brave the Shave campaign to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support in which participants are sponsored to shave off their hair.
She decided to take part when she saw the event advertised at Harborough Hills Social club and has already raised £190 of her £200 target.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
