Newport woman Lynda Ramage and partner Jason Kirk are doing the “World’s Greatest Shave” to honour family members who have battled cancer and to raise funds for the Leukaemia Foundation.
“I’m dedicating my shave to my family members who have battled leukaemia and won – my great niece Ella – and those who have lost their battle: my darling uncle Robert,” Ms Ramage said.
“I am also dedicating my shave to my father, Jason’s mother, and uncle Jeff, who have been struck down with cancer and won, or are continuing their journey with this terrible illness.”
Money raised through the shave, which runs from March 13-15, will be used for research and practical support for people with blood cancer. Ms Ramage and Mr Kirk are part of a Hewlett-Packard team aiming to raise $5000.
