A popular barbershop in Weston will host the first leg in a biker tour of barbers next week as part of a national charity campaign.
For five years, motorcyclists - who are also barbers - have combined their 'love of biking and barbering' with a UK-wide fundraising event. To date, the BarbersRide group has raised more than £86,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
This year, they will travel from Weston to Margate, Kent, in just five days. Bikers will also visit Redruth, Exmouth, Southampton and Lewes, in Sussex.
To kick-off the event, Lucky Sevens Barbershop, on Stafford Road, will host around 50 motorcyclists - and their bikes - for a fundraising party on Saturday, August 6, where people will enjoy a barbeque, drinks, a DJ and a raffle.
All are welcome, but space at the tonsorium is extremely limited.
Lucky Sevens owner, Charlie Venn, said: "It'll be a fun, chill event where people can not only enjoy the party and watch the spectacle of 50 bikes pull-up outside our shop, but it's all for a really great cause.
"To raise money for the ride, we're also holding a £2 raffle with a chance to win prizes worth more than £1,000. Please visit our Instagram page or pop into the shop to buy tickets."
The evening will take place from 5pm to around 10pm.
Lucky Sevens is an appointment-only barbershop for families which started in 2019.
