Newbury College took part in CLIC Sargent's 'Wig Wednesday' on Wednesday 22 May, raising over £100 for children and young people with cancer.

Being diagnosed with cancer is a frightening experience. The gruelling, often life-saving cancer treatment can last up to three years and frequently leads to children and young people losing their hair. The College showed their support throughout the day where both students and staff were invited to wear a wig and make a donation.

LRC Manager, Fiona Lees, who organised the event at the College said, "We are delighted with the amount of learners and staff who supported CLIC Sargent, the UK's leading cancer charity for children and young people, by taking part in Wig Wednesday. This charity helps young people throughout their treatment for cancer and other life limiting illnesses, along with supporting the family".
