England Women’s ran out 33-13 winners against Canada on Saturday. Although it marked the Red Roses third title, it was the first in 11 years for John Mitchell’s squad.
Despite the grey skies and pouring rain, nothing could dampen jubilant scenes as stars such as Ellie Kildunne, Marlie Packer and captain Zoe Aldcroft met fans at the iconic London landmark.

Alongside the fans outside Battersea Power Station, was double Olympic gold medallist, Dame Kelly Holmes, and Lioness Lucy Bronze, following her own successful summer at Euros.
Leading the fans were former London Irish winger and England international, Topsy Ojo, and fittingly, Katy Daley-Mclean, who captained the side to their last tournament win 11 years ago.
