Mo Farah was joined by other Olympic champions on Saturday night in a bid to raise money for his charity.

The 5,000m and 10,000m gold medalist held the party on behalf on his own foundation, which he established to help the victims of famine in east Africa.

Farah came to the UK from Somalia at the age of eight and told reporters he wants children there to have the same things he did.

"I was very lucky to start a new life here ... but there are people out there [in Somalia] who need our help, mainly the kids," he said.

"My daughter gets what she wants - clothes and everything else - but there are kids out there who are starving.

"Our aim is to give them clean water, food and to try and help them to help themselves".
