The England and Manchester United hero tells young readers to 'find strength' in what makes them unique in a special edition of the children's comic available from Wednesday.

"Our voice is strong alone, but when our voices come together, we are powerful.

"When we fight for things that are important together, we can make progress a lot quicker than by ourselves."Finding your voice doesn't have to be difficult. It can be as simple as having the confidence to stand up for something you believe in, or to champion someone else and their difference.Marcus Rashford pictured alongside Beano charactersduring the COVID lockdown - also said reading was one of his favourite things to do"because it lets me dream".

The magazine will include a strip dedicated to the programme, which includes interactive workshops and peer-to-peer sessions, showing the England striker teaching Beanotown kids about failure, persistence, patience and role models. For each copy of the special edition sold, 20p will be donated to the Marcus Rashford Book Club to help children access books, in partnership with Macmillan Children's books.
