There's A memorial to the four young boys who died at Babbs Mill Lake in Solihull - done with help from their community. It's a spray paint portrait of the boys - taken from their photos. It was put there the weekend by Smith's Wood Access to Services and Support - a youth support group that works in the area.

They were pulled from water at Babbs Mill Park in Kingshurst in December. Our reporter Laura has been to see it, and speak to one of the artists
