Andy and David Beckham took centre stage at Wembley Stadium yesterday, to mark
the launch of Malaria No More UK – a not-for-profit organisation committed to
ending suffering and death caused by malaria, a preventable disease.

As members of the UK Leadership Council, Andy and Beckham drew attention to the
importance of mosquito nets with the help of the largest tennis net in the
world - all 68 metres of it - made out mosquito net fabric, and stretched
across the Wembley pitch.
The two of them playing a mixture of football and tennis across the net
highlighted the very simple point that whilst malaria threatens half of the
world’s population, it's preventable and treatable: blanketing Africa with
mosquito nets is one of the most simple and effective ways to help prevent the
spread of malaria and yields life-saving results from a disease that kills one
child every 30 seconds, and more children under five than any other disease.
If you're anxious to see Andy taking free-kicks, and Beckham serving some
tennis balls, we'll have clips and pictures in the next few days!
Together, Andy and Beckham are campaigning to raise awareness about malaria,
starting with that simple message that for just ￡5 a bed net can be bought,
transported and delivered to a family in Africa, so protecting a mother and
child or brother and sister against malaria for up to five years.Their ultimate
goal is to ensure all those at risk of malaria in Africa have access to a bed
net by the end of 2010.
Andy said:
“It’s great that we’re here to help with the campaign and make a
difference. Malaria is preventable. The suffering and deaths it causes are so
unnecessary especially because it is so cheap to make a difference – just ￡5
to protect a family for up to five years.”
Beckham said: “By creating awareness we can really make a difference. Days
like today are so important. It’s a real honour and a privilege for both Andy
and me to get behind Malaria No More. When I went over to Sierra Leone as a
UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, I saw the devastation that many diseases cause, but
malaria is the biggest single killer for children under five. The statistics
are really frightening.”
In recent years countries such as Rwanda, Ethiopia and Eritrea have
successfully used bed nets, insecticides and access to medicines to cut malaria
deaths by over 50%.
Sarah Kline, Executive Director, Malaria No More UK says: “We are thrilled
that David and Andy have so generously given up their time to raise awareness
about malaria. They are two of the world’s biggest names in sport and it is
fantastic that they want to help us end suffering and deaths from malaria.”
