Konnie Huq Ambassador For The British Red Cross

As an ambassador for the British Red Cross Konnie Huq has been commenting this week on two of their current campaigns.

First there is the British Red Cross Don't Be A Bystander campaign, which is aimed at giving youngsters aged nine to thirteen practical life saving skills. This is being backed by Toyota.

Konnie Huq said: "The campaign has been an incredible success in reaching so many young people with first aid training – an essential life skill. Our key message throughout has been ‘Don’t be a bystander. Be someone. Learn first aid.’ and these young people are now equipped to make a difference when it really matters."

The second is Dance For Life.

Following the success of Dance for Life over the past two years, dancers are being urged to get on their dancing shoes and take part in one of the biggest celebrations of youth dance.

Konnie Huq commented, "Dance for Life offers such a wonderful opportunity for all young people to perform in a fun and friendly environment."
