ABOUT the campaign


Join the Shave or Dye club!

Shave or Dye raises funds for free cancer support services for patients and their families across the country. Donations help fund our Daffodil Support Centres, Night Nursing, and much more. 

Each year, thousands of participants get their friends and family to sponsor them to shave or dye their hair. By shaving, dying, or refreshing your hair, you are funding experct cancer nurses, groundbreaking cancer researchers and a range of vital services to help perople navigate cancer. Without your support none of this would be possible. 

We are asking you to join the Shave or Dye club too!
