Sharon Hooley's friend, Samantha, has survived the particularly nasty and little known peritoneal cancer and is now raising money to raise awareness of the disease and to help people through a treatment know as HIPEC (see previous Salford Star article – click here). To help Samantha reach her goal, Sharon decided to do a sponsored head shave, and today the deed was done at Supercuts in the Manchester Arndale, allowing the Salford girl to raise £355.10 with more to come in. "I'd like to thank Luke Griffiths at Supercuts for doing the shave and supporting me on his day off" says Sharon "And I'd like to say that life is far too short, so do something at least every week you wouldn't normally do and smile more." There is still time to donate via the Just Giving page, which also has more details on Samantha's story – click here

| I had the pleasure of being in Sharon's company a few hours after her head shave, she was still the smiling person I had known, her efforts are indicative of her nature, and makes me wonder why many of our civic leaders and those who would aspire to be, don't follow suit and make a fund raising effort to help Sharon in her quest to help others, but of course that would mean that you actually care, do you ? |

| It's good to know that within Salford, there are still some kind hearted people left. Just a little deed, like having your head shaved has raised well needed funding for Cancer. Well done Sharon Hooley!!! I am proud to call you a fellow "Housing Advocate" and most of all, "My Friend". Kindest Regards, Tahir Chakotai (Independent Housing Advocate). |
