Martin Lewis LadBaby Bob Geldof Trussell Trust Mark Hoyle Midge Ure Roxanne Band Aid Trust Ed Sheeran Band Aid

Martin Lewis has made a surprising career move by teaming up with LadBaby to create a charitable Christmas number one contender.

MoneySavingExpert's Martin and the internet sensation will be reworking the Band Aid song Do They Know It's Christmas? in a bid for LadBaby claiming their fifth consecutive Christmas number one. Social media star Mark Hoyle and his wife Roxanne (LadBaby Mum) are the first act to be allowed to rework the Band Aid song, getting permission from Bob Geldof, Midge Ure and the Band Aid Trust.

They will release the track titled Food Aid on December 16, with half of the money raised going to food bank charity the Trussell Trust and the other half to the Band Aid Trust. Geldof and co-writer Ure's first version of Do They Know It's Christmas? raised £8 million for famine relief in Ethiopia.
