Matilda is supporting the Little Princess Trust.

AN EIGHT year old girl from Whalsay is set to cut her hair off later this month in aid of charity.

Matilda Neicho will donate around 17 inches of hair to the Little Princess Trust, which provides free real wigs for children experiencing medical hair loss.

She also hopes to raise money for the charity when she gets her hair chopped off on 23 February.

To donate money to the cause, visit here.
