Marcus Rashford: Footballer honoured by mural at primary school

A mural of Marcus Rashford has been painted at a primary school in east London to honour his campaigning work around school meals during the pandemic.

Pupils at Gainsborough Primary in East Ham chose the England and Manchester United footballer for the artwork, because so many of them had relied on the food packages during lockdown.

Rashford, who helped raise money for millions of school meals, said the mural was "really cool".
