Janine Donaldson, Jessica’s mum, said: “She’s been wanting to so this since she was four but I wanted her to wait a bit so it was longer and she knew she definitely wanted to do it.
“She’s very happy to be able to help children who have sadly lost their hair. She had just under 14 inches cut off, which makes a long wig.
“She’s glad she was able to raise awareness of the charity and the amazing work it does.”

Janine added: “We have also set up a fundraising page, hopefully we can raise at lease £350, it say on the Trust’s page that it costs between £350 and £500 to buy a wig. I am very proud of her and feel very humbled, it is for a very, very good cause.”
