Lennon Wright has finally had his 16-inch-long hair cut off

As many as 150 people turned out to the Bridge Inn at Cannock to watch Lennon Wright lose his 16-inch-long locks.

During the night donations totalled £1,065, taking his fundraising to £3,200.

Lennon, a pupil at Littleton Green Community School in Huntington, decided when he was only eight-years-old that he wanted to grow his hair to help the Trust which donates wigs for children or young people losing their hair through cancer or other health issues.
