A young girl has chosen to make the ultimate sacrifice of shaving her hair off all in the name of charity and we are calling on Leeds United supporters to get behind her incredible fundraising efforts.

Nia, who is just 12-years-old, set about raising funds for the Little Princess Trust who give free, real hair wigs to children who lose their hair to cancer or other conditions to help restore their confidence and identity.

The youngster made an original plan to donate her own hair to the charity for them to make a wig from, however as it had been dyed that wasn't possible and instead she made the very brave decision to shave her hair off in the hopes of raising hundreds of pounds that could then be used to support research efforts and to help make a number of different wigs for young children suffering.

Little Princess Trust relies solely on the efforts of community and individual fundraisers, with no form of formal funding, so every penny donated really is helping to make a difference. For more information on the charity, please click here.
