The home carer from Bradenham and his wife Elaine help raise cash for charities by organising several events each year including a big auction in aid of the Big C Appeal.
The auction has a theme each year and this year to link in with the punk theme Jimmy had his hair cut, coloured and shaped into a Mohican-style. It was styled by Kate Penhaligan at Shorn by Sean at Dereham.
Jimmy was sponsored for his hair style and the auction of donated goods, staged at Longham village hall, raised �813.

'I think that if I look stupid for two weeks but in doing so raise money for charity and raise awareness of the Big C Appeal then it is nothing,' he said.
