A PADGATE woman has shaved her head inspired by her dad’s battle with Crohn’s disease, raising nearly £1,000 for charity.

Jade Wilson, of Green Lane, got the chop at Dawn Walsh Hair Design in Woolston on Friday, November 25, raising a total of £992.54 for Crohn’s and Colitis UK.

Her dad Peter Wilson has been seriously ill due to Crohn’s, undergoing life-threatening surgery and spending time in intensive care.

Peter also lost his mum to the disease when she was just 48.
