Corby boy, 12, donating his hair to the Little Princess Trust for the third time

A Corby boy is set to donate his long hair to a very good cause for the third time.

Alexander has decided to donate his hair to the Little Princess Trust once again.

The charity provides free real hair wigs to children and young people up to the age of 24, who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or other conditions.

It also funds childhood cancer research searching to find kinder and more effective treatments.

Mum Joanna is very proud of her son, telling the Northants Telegraph: “His first hair donation was at age four, second at age eight and soon it is going to be another hair cut.

"He is constantly being mistaken for a girl, the other day someone asked if he is my sister.

"Luckily he doesn’t mind and got used to being called a little girl because he is growing his hair for a good cause.”
