Play Swat the Mozzy and Help Save Lives

Swat The Mozzy and Win Cool Prizes in new game from non profit
Malaria No More UK

Swat the Mozzy, a simple point and click game developed by UK charity Malaria No More UK, just got a little bit cleverer. The player who manages to swat the most mozzies between now and 25th April, World Malaria Day, will get the chance to win a host of fab prizes and help raise awareness about malaria at the same time.

Malaria is a preventable and treatable disease that affects half of the world’s population and claims 781,000 lives every year, most of those are children in Africa.

Share Swat the Mozzy with your friends! Prizes up for grabs for the swiftest swatter include a range of signed memorabilia by British tennis star Andy Murray and Queen of the Jungle Stacey Solomon’s hat from when she was swatting away bugs on I’m A celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! last year.
