Dragon supports Yummy Mummy Week
Howard Lake | 25 September 2008 | News
Duncan Bannatyne, entrepreneur and fearsome dragon from BBC’s ‘Dragon’s Den’ is supporting this year’s Yummy Mummy Week in aid of children’s cancer charity CLIC Sargent.
He has posted with ‘Dishy Daddy’ merchandise to raise awareness of the fundraising week, which runs from 20 to 28 September.
Bannatyne, a father of six, modelled items such as the ‘I’m the Daddy’ t-shirt, the Dishy Daddy tape measure and the Dishy Daddy mug.
Sarah Gunn, National Event Manager for CLIC Sargent, said: “The Yummy Mummy fundraising campaign has had the support of some Yummy celebrity mums but we’ve never had a Dishy Daddy. We think Duncan looks fab in his t-shirt and during the whole shoot, he didn’t say ‘I’m Out’ once!”
The merchandise includes gifts for other family members, including Yummy Mummy, Groovy Grandad, Glamorous Granny, Funky Uncle and Awesome Aunty.
