“I have always had long hair and I had heard of Little Princess Trust before.

“It’s an amazing charity that donates real hair wigs to children who lose their hair to cancer or other conditions.

“I knew immediately that this was the charity I wanted to support.”

Emma is hoping to raise £550 – the amount it costs Little Princess Trust to provide a real hair wig to a young person.

As part of the company’s match funding scheme launched in 2019, Covers has pledged to match Emma’s final fundraising amount up to £1,000.

Henry Green, managing director of Covers, said: “This is a wonderful thing Emma is doing.

“We are delighted to be supporting her with our match funding scheme and helping towards her fundraising total for Little Princess Trust.”
