A WOMAN had her head shaved yesterday to raise money for a hospice.
Jane Greener decided to get rid of her shoulder-length hair to say thank you to the Butterwick Hospice at Stockton, which cared for her father's partner, Jean Porritt, during her battle with breast cancer.
Ms Porritt died earlier this month and Jane, 32, thought doing something drastic may make people take notice of the hospice.
She said: "The care and support that Jean received while she was in the hospice was fantastic and I just wanted to be able to give them something back."
The event raised about £230 for the hospice.
