The 'parachute' singer publicly battled the disease herself while holidaying in Tanzania with rumored BF Derek Hough. And now she will travel to Uganda to hand out mosquito nets and vital medicine.
A source said:
"It is a very brave decision. Cheryl has thought long and hard about it. This is a life-changing, landmark experience for her. She’s seen how malaria destroys people’s lives and now has first-hand knowledge of just how serious it is."
So it seems that everything happens for a reason! The source said:
"After what she has been through, you might have thought Africa was the last place she’d be wanting to go to.But the reverse is true. She wants to get out there as soon as The X Factor has been wrapped up."
The trip will allegedly be filmed for Comic Relief, following the success of her trip to Mount Kilimanjaro with other celebrities last year!
