A STUDENT from a Wokingham school has proved she is all heart by having her long locks chopped off for charity.
Holme Grange School pupil Ruby Owen, whose long blonde hair trailed down her back, braved the chop to donate her hair to a charity which produces wigs for pre-teen girls undergoing chemotherapy treatment.
A spokesperson for the school, Danielle Marriott said everyone was incredibly proud of Ruby’s actions. She said: “As you can imagine, this was a very big step for a young girl who has never had much more than just a trim in the past, but is something she’s extremely passionate about.
“Ruby displayed great empathy and understanding of the trials faced by young girls going through such a difficult period of their lives.”
