Redditch community centre's 24 hour Game-a-thon

For years we've heard how young people don't really have many places to go anymore...with many youth centres closing.

But one in Redditch - designed to help children with differing levels of autism - has been holding a 24 hour Game-a-thon to try and raise some much needed funds.

With the money raised, "Your Ideas Matchborough" will run a total of 11 social support clubs after school, as well as day time "Alternative Provision" for young people who are unable to access education.

Our reporter Sophie Millward has been the centre in Redditch just as it was kicking off and she spoke with their Managing Director, Jordan Cooke.
