Kath has a close shave for charity
WHEN Kath Drury saw three people close to her lose their battle for life, it was the incentive she needed to raise money for charity.
But kind-hearted Kath didn’t want to do anything by half so she decided she would have her head shaved in memory of Joe Needham, Audrey Rigby and her mum, Betty Smith.
Joe Needham died of leukaemia in July, aged just 20. Audrey Rigby died in January after a battle with cancer, both were members of the Salvation Army in Ashton, where Kath is also a member, so she knew both of them well.
“Although I had been very nervous about having my hair shaved off, on the day I was fine and I really enjoyed myself.
