The Madder their hair – the more money they raised! This was how BCOT students on the Level 2 NVQ Hairdressing course approached Bad Hair Day recently, in an attempt to raise as much money as possible for St Michael’s Hospice.

Hair was dyed red and plenty of gel and spray was used to make hair stand up on end – and the students were all happy to carry their mad look around college along with their donation buckets. Generous staff and students gave a total of £131.
Jade Radwell, one of the students involved in the day said:
“We were all happy to look mad just so we could raise lots of money for St Michael’s Hospice.
Everyone was really generous, and we certainly made staff and students look at us!
The great thing about today is that we know all the money we raise will go directly to the charity – we are really happy about this and don’t mind looking a bit mad as long as everyone supports us along the way!”
Donna McGuirk, Lecturer in Hair at BCOT said:
“This is a fantastic event that we as a department are happy to support year after year; the students are always entusiastic and thoroughly enjoy participating and raising money for such a good cause.”
