Six-year-old girl to make a huge charity donation

So you can imagine her mother’s surprise when she announced that she wanted to have most of it cut off for charity.

Darcie-Rose, aged six, is having 10 inches of hair cut off, which will be given to the Little Princess Trust – a charity that creates wigs for children undergoing cancer treatment.

Darcie has raised £260 after less than a week of fundraising – the money will also be going to the same charity.

Her target of £350 would be enough for the Little Princess Trust to also create another wig, on top of the hair she is already donating.

Mum Emily-Jane Handley, said: ‘Darcie-Rose has been growing her hair for a while now, flicking it about like the diva she is!

‘But now my kind and selfless little girl has made such a grown-up decision to donate and we are so proud of her for that.’

Darcie-Rose added: ‘I want to have my hair cut so that a wig can be made for a poorly girl or boy.’
