Tallulah is getting used to her new look

Tallulah, from Brockton, Shrops., said: ” I was a little bit shocked when I first saw it.

“But I am used to it now and I may grow it into a short bob – I haven’t decided yet.

“It was a nice way to raise money for the hospice and have been pleased with people’s reaction, they have been supportive and very generous.

“As well as raising money for Severn Hospice I also wanted to donate my hair to help children who have cancer.”

Tallulah and her nine-year-old sister Poppy moved in to the Severn Hospice with mum Sarah during the final three weeks of Andrea’s life.

She added: “He passed away while we were at the hospice and they made him feel comfortable.

“They took us in they let us sleep there they gave us breakfast and everything and really helped us and supported us.”

Mum Sarah, 42, said her daughter was adamant about having her hair cut and kept on at her about it until it was organised.

She said: “Poppy was very worried about the hair cut, because she thought she was going to have a bald head – but we reassured her there would still be hair left.

“Tallulah also reassured her sister by telling her that however short her hair was, she would still be her sister.”
