A former gang member from Birmingham's set up free youth sessions to keep young people away from violent crime.

They're being run, every Thursday night for the next six weeks, at Handsworth Library and they're for 8-12 year olds.

Michelle Helsby's running them - she set up the community group "forever 15" two years ago after the death of her son's friend, 15-year-old Keon Lincoln.

Our reporter Megan Jones went down to the library for the first session.
