Sun Life Direct and the Bobby Moore Fund

And nine out of ten of them are over the age of 50. Sun Life Direct is committed to doing everything possible to look after the interests of those who are over the age of 50. Which is why we’re fully supporting the Bobby Moore Fund.

“Our aim is to do everything we can to help protect the lives of the over 50s, which is why we’re proud to support the Bobby Moore Fund.” Mark Howes, Managing Director, Sun Life Direct

Tragically, World Cup football winning hero Bobby Moore OBE died of the disease aged just 51, prompting his widow Stephanie to set up the Fund to try and stop the same thing happening to others.

“Having lost Bobby I knew I had to use the opportunity I had, to help make sure that other people didn’t die of bowel cancer.” Stephanie Moore MBE

With the support of many high-profile sports stars – including the England football team, David Seaman, and Martin Johnson – the Fund aims to make as many people as possible aware of the disease and, if they are in any doubt about whether they might have it or not, to seek medical advice right away.

And with good reason. If bowel cancer is detected at the earliest stage, more than nine out of ten patients can be successfully treated.

Screening can make all the difference

Thanks in part to successful lobbying by Cancer Research UK and the Bobby Moore Fund, everyone in England aged 60 to 69 can get free screening by their GP as part of the NHS’s bowel cancer screening programme. In Scotland the scheme is available to everyone aged 50 to 74.

If as many people as possible take advantage of this simple, painless procedure, there is no doubt that the effects of the disease can be significantly reduced.

So, if you are in any doubt, seek advice from your GP as soon as possible. You can find out more about the Bobby Moore Fund by visiting their website at http://www.bobbymoorefund.org.

UV Filter (Ultraviolet): For protection against dust, dirt, scratches, fingerprints, and the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Circular Polarizing Filter: Used to create color saturation, like darkening blue skies so that white clouds stand out. FL-D (Fluorescent): For taking pictures indoors under fluorescent lights. This filter removes the greenish tint given off by fluorescent lighting. This Item Includes: 1. UV Lens Filter. 2. Circular Polarizing Filter. 3. Fluorescent Filter. 4. Filter Pouch. 5. Microfiber Cleaning Cloth. Lens filters are translucent pieces of glass placed in front of a camera lens to alter or adjust the light entering the camera and more importantly to protect the camera lens. Lens filters improve photographs by giving photographers control over light and allowing them to emphasize the features of a scene that they consider more important. This filter kit is a combination of the three essential filters no photographer should be without. (Ultra Violet) Film and a digital CCD are more sensitive to UV light than our eyes are. This often shows up in images shot from high altitudes and and long distances especially over water. This filter will remove the UV light and more importantly protect your lens from moisture, scratches, and damage. (Circular Polarizer) provides color and contrast enhancement. Reflected light often shows up as a whitish glare that washes out color in an image. A polarizing filter will correct this problem creating deep blue skies. It also removes glare from non-metallic surfaces such as windows and water. (Flourescent Filter) provides color correction when shooting under fluorescent lighting. It will remove the greenish tint from the image, providing pleasant skin tones and true to life color renditions. Warranty: 10 Year Manufacturers. Made in Japan.

 'Blue Sun Face' 3D Oil Drum Art (Haiti)


‘Blue Sun Face’ 3D Oil Drum Art (Haiti)


$34.49


Made from steel drums, this hand-painted piece of art features a sun face design. This artwork is three-dimensional and hangs easily on a wall. Product Features: Story Behind the Art: Founded in 1990, Caribbean Craft (formerly known as Drexco) promotes employment in Haiti by training unskilled – but often highly gifted – craftspeople, and by assisting the independent artisans through the introduction of new designs and new market outlets. Unemployment in Haiti, the poorest country of the American hemisphere, is variously estimated at between 60 and 80 percent. The organization has gone through rough times during the past years, marked by political troubles and economic difficulties including a 3-year-long embargo on all Haitian exports. Drexco saw in 1997 its premises totally ransacked and then destroyed during gang violence. Relocated in a higher-security industrial park, the organization currently employs 400 artisans either as salaried employees or outside contractors, with roughly equal numbers of men and women. Caribbean Craft’s specialty is brightly colored, artistically hand-painted home decor objects, which can be purely decorative, such as wall hangings, or consist of objects useful in the home, like switch plates and magnets. The natural artistic talents of the Haitians are well known, and many of these hand-painted pieces are truly works of art. What is Worldstock? The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design and sizing. Subtle variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.
