Wayne Rooney supports UNICEF campaign


29 10 2014

Wayne Rooney, Joe Hart, Gary Cahill and Jack Wilshere have joined forces to help launch UNICEF and the England Footballer's Foundation's (EFF) new four year partnership, One Goal, which aims to help tackle malaria.

The footballers all feature in a new image along with children from William Shrewsbury Primary School. Rooney commented 'It's unbelievable that every 90 minutes - the time it takes to play a football match - 180 children will lose their lives to malaria. As captain of the England football team I am hugely proud that we are able to help UNICEF in its goal of protecting every child in danger from this disease'.
