Nicole Thackray braved the shave on Monday July 15 at the RSPCA HQ in Southwater where she works as a data and selections executive.

Her hair has been donated to The Little Princess Trust to be made into wigs for children, and the money raised will be split evenly between Great Ormond Street Hospital and RSPCA Leeds branch.
