She bravely had her hair cut at the town’s Ash Hairdressing and is delighted with her new hair style.
Mum Sadie said: “She was over the moon. As soon as her hair was cut her face just beamed.
“She says people keep telling her how beautiful she looks.

The new short hair do means there’s much more time in the mornings for things other than brushing and plaiting Bethany’s hair.
“It usually took about 40 minutes to do it before,” said Sadie. “We have had a lot of spare time in the morning.
“She just looks fabulous with short hair.”
People can donate to Bethany’s Just Giving page until the end of the month (March) at www.justgiving.com/BethanyBubble
