Cole 'wants to fight malaria outbreak'

Cheryl Cole is planning on raising money to stem the spread of malaria in Africa following her brush with the disease.

The X Factor judge was reportedly hours from death after contracting the tropical illness during a trip to Tanzania in June, and now intends to help other sufferers on the continent once she has made a full recovery.

A friend of Cole's told Music News: "Cheryl wants to raise money for mosquito nets and better medicines across the worst-affected regions of Africa.

"After hitting such a terrible physical low, she has come to realise just how awful the disease is and how lucky she has been to receive the best medical care."

Cole is currently recuperating at home after being discharged from hospital just over a week ago. It was revealed today that she refused a recent request from estranged husband Ashley to visit her while she makes her recovery.
