A mother and son from Newton Poppleford are in for a close shave this weekend as they prepare to lose their hair for a good cause.

Jeanette and Jordan Fakhouri hope their trim tomorrow (Saturday) will help raise more than £500 for the Huntington’s Disease Association – a group that supports people affected by the rare brain condition.

The pair will have their heads shaved at 3.30pm at the Cannon Inn in Newton Poppleford.
