A LEWANNICK school boy has had his long locks cut off to raise money for a donkey sanctuary.

Ten-year-old Jakk Wilton was so inspired by the adverts he saw on television regarding the welfare of donkeys, that he decided to have all his hair cut off to raise money for the Donkey Sanctuary in Sidmouth.

Also, all the hair that was cut off will be donated to the 'Little Princess Foundation' which makes wigs for cancer sufferers out of real hair.
