Mum and daughter, Lyn and Laura Fuoco both had a bad hair day and raised £200 for the Whitchurch Youth Project and the CLIC Sargent children's cancer charity.

Laura who is just in her fourth year of remission from cancer and her mum, Lyn, both sported flowing locks (top left) until they joined forces with Whitchurch's demon barber, Mike Taylor, for a sponsored hair trim at the Friday evening Whitchurch Youth Club Meeting. Mike kindly donated his time but was unable to reward either participant as he does his normal clients with a beer (for male customers) or a lollipop (for boys). They were both able to keep the clippings (top right) and forward the sponsorship moneys to the 2 deserving causes.
