Celebrities ranging from actors to designers are helping anti-poverty charity ActionAid get every boy and girl in the developing world out of poverty and into school. They’ve got their feelings about poverty and the 72 million children out of school off their chests and devised tee-shirt slogans in aid of PoverTee Day.
Designer Wayne Hemingway, hairdresser Niicky Clarke, actresses Miranda Richardson, Ashley Jensen and Karen David, singer Alexandra Burke and model and designer Jasmine Guinness devised snappy and thought-provoking slogans which have been immortalised on one-off tee-shirts being auctioned to raise money for PoverTee Day.

ActionAid spokesperson, Janine Goddard, said: "People across the UK have the chance to help change the lives of millions of the world’s poorest children. They can swap their normal school uniform or work clothes for a tee-shirt and donate £2 to ActionAid for the privilege.
“We will use the money raised to make a difference to the education and standard of living of children and families living in poverty in Africa, Asia and the Americas."
