A hair-raising event is aimed at raising hundreds of pounds to help teenagers with cancer.

Fundraisers from Teenage Cancer Trust are getting wiggy with it at the opening of the new look Argos store in Stevenage today (Saturday).

Dressed in nutty wigs, the volunteers will be collecting from shoppers to help youngsters with the disease.

The trust, which is the chosen charity of the catalogue chain, supports young cancer sufferers both with treatment and emotional support.
