No Hair for Hospiscare!
Diana Virgin and friend Alex Waldron are off to the hairdressers, but instead of cut and blow dry they are both shaving off all of their hair!
On May 3rd at the Honiton Conservative Club the pair will be having their heads shaved in full view of the public from 7:30pm onwards.
Diana and Alex lost close friend Paul Kiddle to Cancer in February 2014.
Paul was a well known and popular member of the local community acting as Captain of Di and Alex’s Darts Team and secretary for Honiton & District Darts League. Paul was well known for his bald head and had affectionate nicknames because of it.
Diana said: "We know how important Hospiscare is and to have somewhere here in Honiton so people don’t have to travel when they are not feeling their best will make a huge difference.’’
The brave friends are hoping to raise as much as possible in his memory. They are fundraising for local charity Hospiscare. Hospiscare is currently building a new East Devon Day Hospice which will support patients and their families in the region with a terminal illness.
Hospiscare needs to raise £250k to build and run the new day hospice. To support Di and Alex please visit http://www.justgiving.com/Diana-Virgin.
