On 13 November, our charity partner, the Willow Foundation, launched Stars on Canvas 2014.

Top celebrities including Robbie Williams and Mo Farah, as well as leading artists such as Richard Long, have taken part in this unique fundraising event by painting an original piece of artwork for public auction – and the results are incredible.
