David Beckham and Andy Murray are founding members of the Leadership Council for Malaria No More UK.
In April 2009, Andy and David fronted the launch of Malaria No More UK with a stunt at Wembley Stadium playing tennis and football over the world’s longest tennis net, made out of mosquito netting.
“This is the first global charity I’ve been involved with in this capacity and it was an easy decision. Malaria is completely preventable and stoppable but yet it still kills more children in Africa than any other single disease. We can radically change this, it is a huge opportunity and I’m urging the UK public to help save a life and get behind Malaria No More UK, a truly world-changing and life-saving initiative.”
Andy Murray
“It’s truly incredible to think we can stop this killer disease forever and it’s such a simple thing to do. For less than the cost of a football you can protect a family from dying. I urge the UK public to get behind the Malaria No More UK campaign to save a life and make malaria no more.”
