Listed Londoner revisited: Camila Batmanghelidjh

Kids Company charity founder and social justice campaigner Camila Batmanghelidjh has died aged 61.

The Iranian-Belgian started the charity in 1996 in south London, to provide support to up to 36,000 deprived and vulnerable inner-city children and young people.

In 2015 she stepped down amid allegations of mismanagement - but a High Court cleared her of wrongdoing.

She died on New Years Day - her birthday - having been ill for some time.

Following her death, we revisit an interview from 2013 with ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio London's Robert Elms - answering the famous 'Listed Londoner' questions.
