We are incredibly proud of Albyn School S4 pupil Kirsty, who not only completed her National 5 exams yesterday but also headed straight to the hairdresser to donate 12 inches of her hair to charity!

This is Kirsty’s fourth hair donation. Her journey began at just 8 years old, when she had her hair cut at the school Christmas fair. Since then, she has donated her hair and fundraised at ages 10, 12, and now 15. Over the years, Kirsty has raised thousands of pounds for various charities through her generous hair donations.

This time, Kirsty is raising funds for The Little Princess Trust, which creates real hair wigs for children and young people who have lost their hair due to cancer treatment or other conditions, and Duchenne UK, the leading for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

So far, Kirsty has raised an amazing £695 for Duchenne UK and £100 for The Little Princess Trust! Well done!
