Listeners will also have the opportunity to ask their own questions.

A spokesman for Kenya's National Police Service added that the MSS was working "tirelessly" in collaboration with Haiti's police force to restore peace and stability in the Caribbean country.The MSS was boosted earlier this month by the arrival of an additional 200 Kenyan police officers, but the force is outgunned and outmanned by the gangs, which continue to arm themselves with powerful weapons illegally smuggled from the US.

The future of the multinational force - which also has officers from Bahamas, Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala and Jamaica among its ranks - was thrown into doubt some weeks ago when the Trump administration ordered a freeze on foreign aid programmes.US Secretary of State Marco Rubio later approved a waiver for US funds destined for the MSS and Haiti's National Police, but it is not yet clear whether the US government supports turning the MSS into a UN peacekeeping operation, which would make its funding more secure.On Monday, the US Ambassador to Kenya, Marc Dillard, expressed condolences to the family of the killed officer, saying that "the United States is grateful for the courageous Kenyan police who are serving in harm's way to keep our world safer".

A grassroots initiative in West Yorkshire aims to empower boys and young men by helping to create more safe spaces for them, its organisers have said.Emerge, launched in both Leeds and Bradford, is focused on supporting boys - particularly those from black communities - in such spaces, allowing them to get together, reflect, and grow.

Project founder Nana Abena Owusuwah Hagan said the idea stemmed from concerns over rising youth violence, funding cuts to youth services and a lack of male-focused community initiatives.

Mrs Hagan said: "We've taken away the places where young people gather, share and grow. If we want to stop problems escalating, we have to give them those spaces back."But there is one question the couple are always asked - how much does it all cost?

Gary says: "Every year we get folks saying 'I wouldn't want to have your electricity bill'."It's not about the cost for us, it's about what we can raise for charity."

Despite its success, this will be the final year the couple organise the light show."We've done four good years when it was only meant to be a Covid project," Gary says.
