Dear All,
A slight change of plan. Dionne's ITV appearance has been moved to
Sat 11th February.
Dionne is now in London preparing to perform on The
Jonathan Ross Show in support of our awareness raising campaign for
The Hunger Project and our
World Hunger Day initiative.
However, as often happens in the world of broadcasting, over the past 12 hours
ITV have announced a change of schedule and Dionne will now be appearing on the show with
Denzel Washington,
Keira Knightley and
Tom Hardy which will be broadcast on
Saturday week, 11th February.
We are so sorry to email you twice in one week, but we
wanted you to be fully up to date with our plans and very much hope that you will continue to tell your friends and spread the word....the great thing is that we now have a little more time to spread the word even further.
Thank you so much for your continued support for the sustainable end of hunger and poverty. The new information is as follows and fingers crossed there are no more changes!
We are delighted to announce that
Dionne Warwick will be making a special appearance on the
Jonathan Ross show on Saturday 11th February. This is an incredible opportunity for The Hunger Project on one of the most watched TV shows of the week. Joining Dionne on Jonathan's show will be
Keira Knightley, Denzel Washington and
Tom Hardy.
We are so grateful to
Dionne and her Musical Director
, Kathy for supporting
The Hunger Project and our
World Hunger Day spectacular at the
Royal Albert Hall on May 28th.
We ask you all please

sustainable end to hunger and poverty.
