Tina said: “I have had amazing support from a Macmillan professional following intense radiotherapy for a meningioma last year that has caused some damage resulting in some memory loss and concentration problems.

“This is why why I am so keen to raise as much as possible for this fantastic charity. So far this year 3,437 people have signed up to Brave the Shave.”

Macmillan has spent more than 100 years helping people living with cancer. From the moment someone is diagnosed with cancer, the charity is there with all the information, support and guidance they need, to help everyone with cancer live life as fully as they can.

A statement said: “We know that cancer can disrupt your whole life, and affects everyone differently. Cancer impacts more than your physical health, it can impact relationships, jobs, finances, emotional wellbeing and so much more. It can be made worse simply because of who you are and where you live. But we’re here to change that.”
