Girls Aloud reuniting in memory of Sarah Harding

Girls Aloud are reuniting for a one-off special gig to raise funds for cancer equipment after losing bandmate Sarah Harding.

Nadine Coyle from the band has announced they will be getting back together in memory of Sarah, who died last year after going public over her battle with breast cancer.

Shortly after she died, bandmates said they would be doing something to remember Sarah "soon". In an interview with OK!, Nadine said the girls will be working together in order to raise funds for life-saving cancer equipment.

She said: "We’re planning a night for an event to raise money in honour of Sarah. She’s very much in the forefront of our minds.

"We want to raise money for a piece of medical equipment that helps diagnose cancer earlier so people can be treated. We definitely want to do something to help others." Nadine added it will be "difficult" to find a date to rehearse as several members of the group are all mums."

She added: "Obviously, Cheryl has Bear and Kimberley has got her three little ones – Bobby, Cole and Nate – and we were planning on getting all of the babies together a while back but never got round to it."

Nadine said when Sarah was diagnosed she spent most of her time focusing on things that mattered to her. Explaining that Sarah's death has been "so devastating", Nadine said that it still affects the band "deeply, to think about everything that she went through".
