“I found it heartbreaking watching what was happening on the news over Christmas and decided I’d like to do something in my own small way.

“I decided that on Friday, February 10, me and my team at my salon would have a day doing only cut and blow dries. Instead of being charged for the service, we’d ask instead for a donation to UNICEF.

“My team were all fully behind the idea and I can’t thank our customers on the day enough for their support.”
