Grandmother shaves head for church
19/7/2011
A GRANDMOTHER shaved all her hair off to raise money for her local Church on Friday.
Anna Griffiths, 63, is a member of the Greek Orthodox Church who need money for their new East Hyde church that they moved to last year.
The pensioner decided the best way she could help would be with a fundraising event and decided to shave her head.
Ms Griffiths said: “I am very pleased with it, it was very good and I thoroughly enjoyed it. When I first touched my head it felt so strange, but it looks nice and tidy for summer. I was worried I might feel too cold but I don’t. My son said he approves of my new look.
“Our new church is beautiful but it’s so old and doesn’t have any toilets and we are only a small congregation so I wanted to help.’
Professional hairdresser Julie Sakka Nicola, Ms Griffiths’ niece, did the honours and just over £2,000 was raised for the church.
