On a bit of a whim, Neil Breen has signed himself up to take part in World’s Greatest Shave this year!

It will run between March 15-19.

CEO of the Leukaemia Foundation, Chris Tanti, says the World’s Greatest Shave is the charity’s major funding vehicle.

“When you talk about a cancer diagnosis, that’s bad enough but people don’t really understand, particularly with a blood cancer, treatment can go on a really long period of time,” he explained.

Mr Tanti said a diagnosis is “absolutely traumatic” and go on for a long time.

Neil revealed a primary school friend, who he is still in touch with, had leukaemia as a child.

He’ll never forget the day he found out he was cancer-free.
