 Challenging gun culture in Moss Side
This year Erinma Bell found herself catapaulted into the spotlight when Gordon Brown featured her in his book Everyday Heroes. The prime minister said, “For me, Erinma is one of Britain's everyday heroes: the men and women who are quietly changing lives across our nation.” Brown had been struck by the voluntary work Erinma had been doing in Manchester’s Moss Side.
