The ex-Wirralian Flanker states: "Most of you will know me for my rugby and recently I have become known for my long, flowing, luscious, hair… What I am planning to do is shave it all off for the Rosslyn Park Injury Trust and then donate the actual hair to ‘Locks for Love’ a leukaemia charity, so it can be made into a wig for children who suffer with the illness and have lost their hair due to treatment. If you’re not familiar with the Trust, in short, we help injured sportsmen & women from any sport who have suffered significant injuries; helping with things ranging from help towards the costs of wheelchairs to sponsoring them through rehabilitation with the aim of helping them as much as we can through a difficult period."

While his 'less hirsute' dad is convinced Harry is just desperate to emulate his look; Harry is adamant that it is for a good cause that is close to his heart.
