Ellen's Brave and Ready to Shave

University student Ellen Canna is making a bold move to help beat blood cancer - by shaving her head for the Leukaemia Foundation's World's Greatest Shave.

She caught up with Anita on the Country Viewpoint to share her story.

All hair that is shaved off at Ellen's 'Shave Day' event will be donated to Variety's 'Hair with Heart' campaign, with all money raised going towards the World's Greatest Shave fundraising efforts.

To be the first to see Ellen's new haircut for yourself, head along to the Roseworthy university campus this Thursday from 12 noon, or to support her online, visit Ellen's fundraising page.

UPDATE 30/10: Ellen's Greatest Shave has now taken place, raising close to $3,000.

Here's the final result...

...congratulations Ellen!
