CORINNE APPOINTED CORD AMBASSADOR!

Corinne has become Ambassador for CORD, the UK's leading Christian charity working exclusively with refugees and people affected by conflict around the World.

'I am delighted to be involved in promoting CORD's peace building role to a global audience' said Corinne.

'People need to be made more aware of the vital job that CORD is doing in some of the most difficult places with those who have had to flee from war and violence, often losing everything; their families, their homes and their belongings.

'Many are young people, a large number are orphans, and CORD helps them to get back on their feet, to build a new life, which is why I want to lend them my support in any way I can,' she explained.

CORD's Director Michael Godfrey said that Corinne's involvement would help the charity to raise awareness of its peace building programmes with Darfuri refugees in Chad; with former abducted child soldiers and young sex slaves in Northern Uganda; and with refugees returning to DRC and Burundi. The charity has also returned to Cambodia, a country still suffering from the legacy of the Khmer Rouge.

'Corinne's support will be invaluable, and we look forward to working with her and to her visiting our programmes,' he said.

CORD has worked in 25 countries over the past 40 years, from Vietnam to Rwanda, Kosovo to Iraq and Afghanistan. The charity currently spends £2.6million a year on programmes & partnerships in ninecountries and works with all people, regardless of race, creed, colour or political & religious persuasion.
