Pixie Lott becomes Rays of Sunshine charity ambassador

Pixie Lott has signed up as an ambassador for children's charity Rays of Sunshine.

The group aims to grant seriously ill children their wishes, with the likes of One Direction already supporting the charity.

Lott has now had her role as ambassador confirmed following a meeting with a child with cancer last month.

The star met up with Bella, who was diagnosed with muscle cancer in the chest, at one of her gigs in December.

Speaking about her new role, Lott said: "I am absolutely honoured to become an ambassador for Rays of Sunshine. Bella's twinkly, smiley face made my day and I only hope I can help the charity to spread more beautiful smiles."

Bella's mum Hailey said: "Meeting Pixie has proved as beneficial as any medicine. Bella was smiling from ear to ear and couldn't quite believe what happened and that she was real! We can't thank Rays of Sunshine and Pixie enough for these lovely memories."
