Local artist and yoga teacher Amanda Hamilton has been getting used to a new style in her long hair.

Amanda has had dreadlocks created as a way of showing support for her sister, Nicola Coupes who is planning a skydive.

Nicola is raising money for the primary school where she is headteacher, Burbage Primary School in Wiltshire.

Amanda, who is raising funds for St Joseph’s RC Primary School in Ross-on-Wye told the Ross Gazette: “I’m going to have a head full of dreads in support of a head full of dread.”

So far, she has raised £350. If you would like to donate, please visit www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding and search for ‘Amanda Hamilton’.
