Salter gets it 'wrong' for wallace and gromit
|
Martin Salter, MP for Reading West, last week joined forces with Oscar winning animated stars Wallace and Gromit to help promote Wrong Trousers Day (WTD) 2007.
Martin Salter posed with the life-sized characters (see attached photo) to help encourage as many people as possible in Reading to get involved with this year’s Wrong Trousers Day on Friday 29th June. Inspired by the animated antics of Wallace and Gromit, Mr Salter posed with the cheese-loving pair in aid of children's hospitals and hospices. Wrong Trousers Day is being held on 29th June and has a sports theme - Get your Kit on. Participants pay £1 for the 'right to look wrong'. On Friday 29th June people in Reading can help Wallace and Gromit’s Children’s Foundation to reach their target of one million participants by ‘Getting their kit on’ to raise money and help improve the quality of life for children in hospitals and hospices all around the UK. The campaign, organised by Wallace & Gromit’s Children's Foundation and supported by Sanofi-aventis, is also on the look-out for the team sporting the ‘wrongest legwear.’ Anyone has the chance of going up against wrong trousered celebrities in an online public vote for the dubious honour of the Wrongest Wrong Trousers in the UK. Martin Salter is calling on people in Reading to take part in the event by visiting www.wrongtrousersday.org and registering for a free Wrong Trousers Day fundraising pack. He will be donning a pair of rubber fishing waders himself for part of the day on his visit to Kennet Valley. Martin Salter MP, said: “I was delighted to get it ‘wrong’ with Wallace and Gromit in support of ‘Wrong Trousers Day’ on Friday 29 June. I rarely need much of an excuse to wear some really strange clothes whilst at the same time raising money for a superb charity. "Every year Wallace & Gromit’s Children’s Foundation raises hundreds of thousands of pounds towards providing activities for some of Britain’s most poorly children who are undergoing traumatic treatment in hospitals and hospices throughout the UK. "This year I want to help them to raise even more and would encourage everyone in Reading to use this chance to get it really ‘wrong’ on wrong trousers day but more importantly raise as much money as possible! For more information log on to the Wrong Trousers Day website and get involved with the fun!” Nicola Masters, director of Wallace and Gromit's Children's Foundation, said: “A million wrong trousers means £1 million for sick children in the UK. Team up today and get your kit on this Wrong Trousers Day on 29 June, and help us reach the magic million for the kids who need it most. “Register online today and your £1 will contribute to a better tomorrow for the children we support.” 26/06/07 |
