Her mum Colette said: "Grace decided she wanted to donate her hair to The Little Princess Trust who make wigs especially for children with cancer or alopecia.
“I was so surprised that Grace came up with this by herself... She is the most kind and generous person who always thinks of others.”
Grace’s family set up a JustGiving fundraising page and already it has raised well over £900. You can view the page here.
The money will be donated to the Little Princess Trust to cover the cost of making the wigs.
