Mike's Charity Hair-off 2025

Hi everyone!

After the success of the last charity haircut 2 years ago, and the fact that my hair is very long again, I thought it was time to do it all again!

I've decided to support the Pets Foundation and Greater Manchester Blood Bikes this time. The Foundation does great work supporting other animal charities and related organisations - you can find out more about what they do here: https://www.petsfoundation.co.uk/

GMBB are a team that do phenomenal work getting blood and donor breast milk to people that really need them. More information can be found here: https://www.gmbb.org.uk/ and if you have a few minutes, this feature from Crimewatch really brings home how they make a difference: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HCIfWKeOsYc

In terms of the event itself: Once again, there are 5 different styles to choose from, and like last time, the one that gets the most money pledged against it by the end of Friday the 11th of July will be the one I get done.

The haircut will take place in work on Monday the 14th of July, and we hope that people will be able to come and see it being done if they want to - I will confirm final details of this nearer the time.

Like last time, to make sure people feel they are getting their money's worth, I've committed to keeping the haircut all week! I will be coming into the office every day during that time, so you can come and see the final result if you want to 😁

I'll also make an appearance in The Shoal on Tuesday the 15th of July so people who can't make it into the office can still see the final outcome.

The 5 styles are:

1 - Hulk Hogan
2 - Mr T
3 - The Prodigy
4 - Krusty the Clown
5 - The Circle

Please put which haircut your pledge is for in the message when you make your donation. Alternatively, if you'd rather not use an online site to make your donation, please email me your pledge amount and which haircut you want, and I'll make sure your contribution is included in the totals. I'll chase you up for the money once the cut has been done!

Thanks for your support!

Mike
