Rita Ora may be self-isolating like the majority of the nation right now but the pop babe is keen to do her bit to help the growing global coronavirus pandemic.
The Let You Love Me songstress, who dropped her brand new single How To Be Lonely earlier this month, took to Instagram to reveal she has teamed up with the UN and the World Health Organisation to raise as much money as possible to fight the crisis.
Taking to Twitter, Rita shared a sultry snap of herself wearing branded anti-coronavirus merchandise before asking her loyal fans to join her in the campaign.
The British beauty wrote: “In case you haven’t heard, I’ve launched #StopTheSpread merch campaign with and in support of @UNfoundation @WHO!

“ALL proceeds go to the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund.
“If you want to do something about Covid-19 stay safe and clean, and play your part by getting this merch and helping the cause!
“We can do this together.”
Rita’s bold move came just hours after the British Prime Minister announced extensive measures to stop the spread of the virus among the UK.

Speaking from a press conference in 10 Downing Street, Boris Johnson confirmed that all pubs, clubs, gyms, cinemas and restaurants were to be closed from Saturday.
The unprecedented move aims to prevent the spread of the virus via socialising.
The measures come on top of the current requests to social distance and work from home where possible.
Over the past few days, Rita has started wearing blue latex surgical gloves in a bid against contracting coronavirus.

The pop beauty was seen rocking the gloves backstage at Sports Relief last week.
In a clip posted to Nick Grimshaw’s Instagram story, the starlet could be seen snacking with the gloves on – much to the amusement of the Radio One host.
Rita was also snapped with the gloves during her trip to BBC HQ this week where she joined Grimmy on his drive-time show to promote her new single.
