A new way of tackling Nottingham's gun crime has taken to the city's streets. Groups of about 30 church workers have been walking through St Ann's on what they call "prayer patrols", preaching to the disaffected.
The idea has come from Bristol where similar patrols have been going for over a year and organisers from the city have come to Nottingham.
Rev Dawnecia Palmer is working with Pastor Joan Richards, who conducted Danielle Beccan's funeral last week.
Like Nottingham, Bristol has struggled to get to grips with a serious gun crime problem.
But the tide there could be turning as last year there were 240 firearms incidents but in the first six months of this year there have only been 50.
