Beckham and Brown to launch anti-Malaria campaign

London, April 21: Soccer star David Beckham has teamed up with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown to launch an anti-malaria campaign `Malaria No More UK` to eradicate the disease from the country. The footballer believes that a programme bringing together the initiative of British government and the public can wipe out Malaria from the country,reported Contact Music.

"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 U.K. public to support us in this noble cause," he said. Beckham is also associated with the charity "Help For Heroes" which provides aid to injured soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. Bureau Report
