Anglesey woman to have head shaved for Palestine medical aid
Deborah Varney, 67, from Benllech, will brave the shave at The Shed in Benllech at 2pm on Tuesday, June 24.
People can donate to her cause by visiting her GoFundMe page:
Money raised will be donated to Medical Aid for Palestinians, which works for the health and dignity of Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees
It provides immediate medical aid to those in need in Palestine, while also developing capacity and skills to ensure the long-term development of the Palestinian healthcare system.
Deborah said: 'I can't stand by while thousands die of injuries or starvation. This cause means so much to me.
'I've been so incensed by it all that I thought: 'The hair's got to come off!''
In 2022, Deborah raised roughly £2,000 by having her head shaved for British-Ukrainian Aid, following Russia's invasion of Ukraine earlier that year.
