Lauren Wadey

I'm raising money to help relieve the financial burden from families that have a child being treated for a cancer diagnosis.

I am cutting my hair to fundraise to support the creation of bespoke wigs for children, provide essential financial assistance to families in need, and funding within paediatric oncology hospitals across the country, ensuring that every child facing cancer receives the care and support they deserve.

Please support me in my fundraising journey, together we can make today easier for kids with cancer and their families.

AN ODE TO MY HAIR

Monday 16th Jun
This is it! 1 more sleep before it’s gone.. 🩵Did you know; •The price of each wig is $2,750 as they are hand made to fit each individual child’s head measurements. •Each wig takes around 40 hours to make. •The wigs are provided FREE to a child needing one by funds raised through the #wigs4kids campaign covering the cost of the wig. 🩷Thanks so much for all the support and incredible donations so far. I’ve managed to raise more than double my goal which is amazing! 💜Still time to jump on board and donate to this wonderful cause.

!! 2 weeks to go !!

Tuesday 3rd Jun
My mane will get the big chop in 14 days, so I can donate it to Wigs4Kids. I’m hoping it will contribute to making a wig that will help a child’s confidence and self-esteem whilst going through treatment and/or illness. It’s going to feel so strange at first. It’s been nearly 20 years since it was last “short”. #bringiton #mymane #20yearslong #donatingvaluables
