Boxing world-champion Amir Khan, comedian John Bishop and BAFTA-nominee Jason Isaacs have teamed up with children’s charity Barnardo’s for the ‘Fifteen Minutes with Fame’ to raise money for the Covid 19 aftermath.
As part of the draw, winners can discuss how to pull punches with world-champion boxer Amir Khan on an exclusive video call. They can chat with comedian John Bishop, while Harry Potter fans can test their wizarding knowledge with a quiz from Lucuis Malfoy himself, BAFTA-nominee Jason Isaacs.
These celebrities are the latest Barnardo’s ambassadors and supporters who are offering members of the public the chance to win a 15-minute video call with them to raise money for Barnardo’s Covid 19 appeal. Bigger names are expected to join the list. Each entry costs £5 and proceeds go to the Barnardo’s emergency appeal, to help the charity continue its vital work supporting vulnerable families across the UK during these very challenging times. Amir Khan said,
“As a long-time Barnardo’s ambassador, I want to do anything I can to make sure that this incredible charity can continue to support vulnerable children all over the UK.
Barnardo’s Chief Executive Javed Khan said, “The vulnerable children Barnardo’s supports need us now more than ever. We’re working round the clock to adapt our vital services, so we can continue to help children and families - whether face to face, on the phone or through an App.
“But we cannot do this alone, and with our shops closed and major events cancelled, we’re more reliant than ever on the generosity of our friends and supporters, as well as the British public. The funds raised will help make sure we can support vulnerable children through this crisis.”
