Alan's brother Mark going red for babies charity Tommy's

Hi,

[On Saturday 4th of July], my friend James Clark and I are going to get ‘Shorn On the 4th July‘ for Tommy’s - a charity which helps to save babies lives ( www.tommys.org ).

James is going to sacrifice his marvellous beard and I am going to lose the ‘mop top’ which grew through lockdown via a full head shave from my twelve year old daughter. 

To add a little to my humiliation, my daughter - whose views on the world are more progressive than mine - also suggested dyeing the hair beforehand. 

So, at the moment I am Red (as you can see below). 

As you might imagine, this is an unusual feeling - possibly as surprising and unsettling for some of you as it is for me (sorry LibDems, I tried for Gold but lost that vote).

Might you ease my discomfort and help a good cause?

My target is looking achievable but if I can get to, or surpass, £1,250 there is the possibility of a full match funding of that amount to really deliver a good result for Tommy’s.
All donations are going to a great cause and will be massively appreciated!

I hope that you enjoy the rest of the day and a lovely weekend.
Thank you for considering this approach and very best wishes, in solidarity,
Mark Wheatley

Alan wishes Mark — and Tommy's — all the best through his encounter with Miri Scissors Hands.
