Take part in this week’s Bad Hair Day to raise funds for Great Ormond Street

Friday 10 February is Bad Hair Day – so swap your sophisticated locks for Mohawks, mullets and wigs to help raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity!

Whether your children crimp their crop for school, you mousse up a mean Mohawk for work, or shampoo and colour a silly style in the salon, all you need to do to take part is sign up for a fundraising pack where you’ll receive materials to help you fundraise.

Funds raised from Bad Hair Day 2017 will go towards the hospital’s most urgent fundraising needs including pioneering new treatments and research, providing cutting edge equipment and supporting the redevelopment of the hospital to provide state-of-the-art facilities to match the hospital’s world-class care. This money will make a vital difference to children from across the UK who are suffering from the rarest, most complex and often life-threatening conditions.

Laura Savory, head of community fundraising at Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity, comments: “Whether you wear a wacky wig or dye your hair purple, be sure to get involved this February by daring to share your bad hair and encouraging people to sponsor you. Your money will help us to make a difference to the lives of seriously ill children from across the UK.”
