A TEENAGER has braved the shave to raise money for a charity close to his heart.
Jonty Edmondson, 16, of Claydon Crescent, Basildon, had thick locks before getting the chop.
But the kind-hearted teen wanted to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support as several members of his family have battled the disease.
His mum Lianne Edmondson said: “The target was £250 but is currently at a whopping £485 and still rising.! I am very proud.”
