Prince William and Prince Harry have announced a concert will be held at the new Wembley Stadium to commemorate the life of Diana, Princess of Wales. The concert will feature stars such as Sir Elton John and Duran Duran and tickets are on sale now from Concert for Diana, although at time of writing it appears the concert is already sold out – further tickets may be released for sale in the New Year.

Proceeds from the concert will go to charities supported by the late Princess, and to charities of which Prince William and Prince Harry are Patrons. These include Centrepoint, the UK’s leading youth homelessness charity, Sentebale, a new charity that helps vulnerable children and young people in Lesotho and the Royal Marsden and Great Ormond Street Hospitals, The Leprosy Mission, The National AIDS Trust and the English National Ballet.

This year Christian charity World Vision UK, is proud to support The Great Ethiopian Run, which takes place in Addis Ababa on 25th/26th November.

The mission of The Great Ethiopian Run is to contribute to the betterment of life in Ethiopia, it publicises important health and social messages, promotes the work of HIV / AIDS organisations & presents a positive sporting image from within Ethiopia.

World Vision has partnered with Ethiopia since the mid 1980’s working with and through local people & communities. Like The Great Ethiopian Run it’s Child Sponsorship work is all about betterment of life, with long-term commitment to area development programmes that bring real and lasting change.

The dedication and commitment of the people of Ethiopia, along with World Vision means that real progress has begun – however World Vision still urgently need to find sponsors for thousands of children who otherwise face a bleak future.

By becoming a World Vision Child Sponsor, you’ll be touching a child’s life in the most profound way possible – by helping to provide them with a better future. It costs only £18 a month to sponsor a child – just 60p a day to change a life – that’s less than the price of a bottle of mineral water. You will provide life’s essentials like safe drinking water, basic healthcare, education, food and immunisation against the killer diseases.

So, please become a child sponsor today and help free children from poverty for years to come.
