Malaria No More UK mobilises the global partnerships, leadership and financing needed to end malaria. Globally, every two minutes a child under five dies from this deadly disease which can be easily prevented and treated. Better bed nets and drugs, and improved health services mean that malaria is beatable if action and investment is stepped up.

Our presenter Jo has lived through the agony of watching her son die from malaria. When he was 20, Harry contracted the disease in Ghana where he was volunteering. She says: 鈥淟osing a child rips out a part of you that you never fill in.鈥� In Africa, children and pregnant women are most at risk.聽

Nearly half the world鈥檚 population is at risk from malaria and, with the added pressures of coronavirus currently testing healthcare services around the world, this risk will increase. It is critically important to sustain efforts to prevent, detect and treat malaria, and ensure millions of the poorest and most vulnerable are protected.

No mother should lose a child to a preventable, treatable disease. Join Jo in helping to make sure that malaria is not forgotten during this global health emergency.
