A bearded Sidbury quartet’s fundraising total for a stillbirth and neonatal death charity has passed the £3,000 mark since they went under the razor on Saturday.
Jud Lascelles recruited friends Rodney Cross, Graham Sheppard and Alan Derryman before Christmas to grow their facial hair for the Sands charity, after it supported him and wife Jemma.
The couple were holidaying in France when twin boys John and Charles were born 20 weeks early and, sadly, were too young to survive.
Jud had aimed to raise £250 from the shave-off. The total currently stands at £3,221, from 111 people. To support the appeal, visit www.justgiving.com/justin-lascelles
