Lanarkshire schoolgirl goes for the chop to help children’s charity

Olivia Christie, from Chapelhall, was inspired to cut off a whopping 12 inches from her luscious locks and donate her ponytail to the Little Princess Trust, as well as raising over £300, for the charity.

The Trust provides real hair wigs for children who have lost their own hair, often through cancer treatment.

And the caring eight-year-old made the brave decision to lob off her treasured tresses after learning about sick kids on a television programme, and raised an amazing £310 for the charity, thanks to her friends, family and well-wishers.
