THERE will be a few chilly men in Wokingham this week – after they had their chests waxed for charity last Friday.
Live music, massages, makeovers and brightly-coloured cupcakes filled Brown Bear Bakery at Holme Grange Craft Village as the company held a Think Pink fundraiser in aid of Breast Cancer Care, Against Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Now.
Musicians Mili and Mertie entertained the guests, local company Gilded Hair dyed visitors’ hair pink and Kokopelli Yoga and Massage provided acupressure.
Three brave candidates, Tim Brown, Magnus Rolfe and Dave Beacham, volunteered to go under the hot wax and lose their chest hair for charity, adding to the total fundraising total of £1,200.
Organiser Michelle Lewis said: ““Thanks to everyone that came and supported us, all those that donated raffle prizes and all the other businesses in the village that helped to make it a great event.”
“So far we have raised nearly £1,200. We’ve still got donation tins, and badges in the shops, so hopefully we’ll raise a bit more over the coming weeks.”
