Murals to celebrate city's sporting stars Athlete Kadeena Cox and swimmer Doris Storey are among those chosen for the murals across Leeds.

This is a fab project to create some new murals honouring unsung sporting heroes in Leeds. We just need somewhere to put them now! More details and how you can help here: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
