Celebrating Russell Finex’s murals honouring

Sir Mo Farah and Freddie Mercury

On May 21st, Russell Finex proudly welcomed special guests to their headquarters in Feltham for the ribbon-cutting ceremony of two vibrant murals celebrating local icons: Sir Mo Farah, the legendary long-distance runner, and Freddie Mercury, the lead singer of Queen.

Both of these remarkable icons have deep roots in Feltham. Sir Mo Farah’s running talent was first discovered just 600 metres from the Russell Finex site, and Freddie Mercury lived only a mile from their factory. To honour their connection to the community, Russell Finex commissioned artist Ed Russell to create two stunning murals that capture their spirit and legacy.

Russell Finex was honoured to have Sir Mo Farah himself join the special occasion, along with Seema Malhotra, MP for Feltham and Heston, representatives from the West London Chambers of Commerce, The Mulberry Centre, local community groups, and Alan Watkinson, the PE teacher who first spotted Sir Mo’s exceptional talent.

Alan Watkinson said “It was such a pleasure to see my ex - student opening the murals at Russel Finex. The amount he has grown as a person and the concern he has for the health and wellbeing of all young people are as much a sense of pride for me as his considerable athletic achievements.” by ‘Photographer London’

The Russell Finex team had a fantastic time meeting the guests, snapping selfies with Sir Mo, and enjoying Queen’s greatest hits throughout the celebration.

You can now see these incredible murals proudly displayed on the walls of the Russell Finex factory on Mono Lane, right next to Feltham Leisure West.
