A community arts group is running a programme encouraging young people to explore attitudes to violent crime using music.

2Funky Arts has launched its latest Words Without Weapons workshops for youths aged 11 and 19 at Leicester's Curve theatre. Funded by the Home Office Communities Against Guns, Gangs and Knives Fund, the 10-week programme sees participants write lyrics and music focusing on themes of anti-violence and from the perspective of victims.

Vijay Mistry, of 2Funky Arts, said: "This is the fourth round of our successful programme.

"It has already demonstrated the power of lyricism in encouraging young people to empathise with victims of crime.
