Keith Lemon Face Masks
UNITED KINGDOM / AGILITYPR.NEWS / July 24, 2020 / Keith Lemon launches the ‘I Love Variety’ celebrity face mask campaign
Variety, the Children’s Charity, today announced that Keith Lemon will launch the ‘I Love Variety’ face mask campaign. The comedian and presenter has put his face on his very own personalised mask, as well as agreeing to promote the charity’s own branded ones.
From today, the public can buy the ‘I Love Variety’ face masks from https://www.masksuk.com/variety-charity-masks/. The aim is to raise funds to help thousands of sick, disabled and disadvantaged children across the UK who are supported by Variety. The masks, which are available for £12.49 and come in a range of sizes, will be modelled by a host of celebrities who are supporting the campaign.
Keith said of his new role: “It’s an honour to be supporting Variety, the Children’s Charity, and to support the incredible work they do across the country. You might not know I’m wearing my ‘I Love Variety’ mask because it has my actual face printed on it, so it looks like I’m not wearing a mask, but I am, and I’m wearing it with pride. Can’t wait to see everyone else with my face! Like one big Lemon family! A really big family where we all look handsome!”
Variety Chief Barker, Dilly Kitchlew-Williamson, said: “Variety has a rich heritage of receiving support from the show business community, and so it is only right that we continue to move forward and work with the stars of today. Over the years, celebrities have dedicated their time to the charity and we know that, with Keith's support alongside our other celebrities, we can mobilise even more people around the country to help Variety to improve the lives of children and young people who are less fortunate than others.”
The presenter star joins a long line of illustrious celebrities who have supported Variety since its inception. The charity has its roots in the showbiz industry, and Sir Michael Caine, Dame Barbara Windsor, Sir Cliff Richard, Dame Judi Dench, Dame Joan Collins and Brian May are just some of the many stars who have pledged their backing in previous years, and helped contribute towards Variety’s rich entertainment heritage.
Variety, the Children’s Charity, is dedicated to supporting children and young people across the UK who are sick, disabled or disadvantaged, facilitating positive experiences for them through its wide range of programmes and initiatives. Since setting up its UK division in 1949, the charity has raised over £200 million and supported more than 800,000 children.

The three-layered, 100% cotton nanotechnology face mask helps filter the air and guard against droplets that enter or leave through your mouth and nose, which may reduce the chance of spreading airborne and droplet illnesses. The mask is machine washable up to 100 times. The outer layer uses cotton nanotechnology for ultra-water-resistance, while the inner layers are breathable and made of a moisture-wicking cotton muslin cloth.
About Variety
Variety believes that neither disability nor disadvantage should prevent any child or young person from realising their full potential. Since being founded in October 1949, the charity has supported over one million disabled and disadvantaged children.
When statutory funding cannot adequately meet a child’s needs, Variety steps in. To ensure that it can respond specifically to the needs of each individual child, Variety provides support in the following four ways:
• Through the provision of specially adapted, accessible transport in the form of their famous Sunshine Coaches, making it possible for children and young people to get out and about so that they can learn practical life skills and enjoy trips out to places they otherwise couldn’t get to;
• Through the provision of customised wheelchair grants, helping to increase mobility and improve independence;
• Through the provision of specialist equipment grants which support a child’s development or ability to self-care; and
• Through memorable experiences in the form of the Variety Great Days Out programme which provides educational and fun day trips.
Variety launched in the United States in 1928 and now operates in 13 countries across the world (United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Jersey, Republic of Ireland, France, Israel, Japan, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Australia, Barbados and Eastern Caribbean), helping children at the local community level.
Variety is a registered charity in England and Wales (209259) and Scotland (SC038505)
