Hollywood actress Sienna Miller is the latest celebrity to back the Evening Star Save the Blue Cross campaign as the stars continue to come out for the treasured animal shelter.

The 28-year-old star of films such as The Edge of Love and GI Joe, has sent a generous message of support as well as posing with one of the campaign posters.

Miss Miller, who is also a model and a fashion designer, has also been joined in the condemnation of the Blue Cross proposals to close the rescue centre in Walton High Street, Felixstowe, by ever-popular singer Des O’Connor – who is due to perform at the Spa Pavilion next month – and former Home and Away actor Bryan Wiseman.

A spokeswoman for the campaign said: “We had had some lovely words of encouragement from Sienna.

“We have been thrilled with the way celebrities have been supporting us in the campaign and we are hoping others will join us over the next few weeks.

“Their interest shows that concern for what is happening to animal rescue shelters is important to people far and wide.

“We will continue to fight to keep the Felixstowe Blue Cross open and hope the charity will be persuaded not to close it.”

Mr Wiseman, who has also been in the Australian version of Come Dine with Me, met up with Des O’Connor before he went on stage at the Performing Arts Centre in Wollongong.

“I run a foster pet scheme here in Sydney and feel really angry that they want to close the Blue Cross,” he said.

“No matter where we are in the world, we humans should be doing all we can to help animals.

“If everyone cared, we wouldn’t have homeless animals!”

Campaigners are doing all they can to put pressure on the Blue Cross, which is set to make its final decision next month.

Other celebrities who have joined the campaign include comedian Joe Pasquale, actor Brian Blessed and spoon-bending Uri Geller.
