Marcus Rashford has vowed to “keep fighting until no child in the UK has to worry about where their next meal is coming from”.
The Manchester United striker headed up a campaign in association with FareShare during the lockdown period, originally aiming to raise £100,000 to help supply food to children who usually have free school meals but are currently unable to access them.

That target was reached in a matter of days and Rashford has already helped raise more than £20m for the charity.
In a message to his followers to Twitter, he wrote:
“Guys, I have amazing news!
“We had a goal that by end of June we would be able to supply 3 million meals to vulnerable people across the UK. Today we have met the financial goal to provide these meals. Thank you all so much for the support.
“And whilst I’m celebrating this, there is so much more to do.
“Trust me when I say, I will keep fighting until no child in the UK has to worry about where their next meal is coming from. This is England in 2020 and families need help.”
