Services to vulnerable children

Britain's Prince William has presented Manchester United player, Marcus Rashford with an MBE for his campaigning work.

The footballer was honoured for services to vulnerable children, and recognised for his campaign last summer against child hunger.

The UK government changed its policy over free school meals vouchers during lockdown as a result of his work.

The 24-year-old revealed details of the conversation he had with the Duke of Cambridge:

An honour to spend the morning with you @KensingtonRoyal thank you for making the day so special for me and mum 🎖 very proud https://t.co/BqpYrttK80
