Ani Lorak has been working tirelessly to raise awareness about AIDS and HIV for many years. She is a Goodwill Ambassadress of the non – profit organisation "Designers Against AIDS". As part of the joint project, Ani and a young Ukrainian designer designed a special T – shirt, which was given to the guests and journalists who attended the sceening of her documentary in Belgrade. In 2004 – 2005 Ani Lorak was United Nations Goodwill Ambassador on HIV and AIDS In Ukraine.
She worked with the Terrence Higgins Trust during her 24 hour stopover in London in April for the UK Eurovision Preview Party. She made time to talk to some of the people that have sought help from the charity and footage was taken for a documentary to be broadcast in Ukraine to help raise awareness.
Organisers are keen to show their support for this worthwhile charity and will provide them with a greater presence at the event. 10% of all ticket sales will be donated to it.
Remaining tickets are priced at £12 in advance from the official website or via the ticketweb telephone booking line on 08700 600 100. Music will be provided by special Eurovision DJ Dave Simmons.
