Listed Londoner revisited: Camila Batmanghelidjh
Available for over a year
Kids Company charity founder and social justice campaigner Camila Batmanghelidjh has died aged 61. The Iranian-Belgian started the charity in 1996 in south London, to provide support to up to 36,000 deprived and vulnerable inner-city children and young people. In 2015 she stepped down amid allegations of mismanagement - but a High Court cleared her of wrongdoing. She died on New Years Day - her birthday - having been ill for some time. Following her death, we revisit an interview from 2013 with Âé¶¹Éç Radio London's Robert Elms - answering the famous 'Listed Londoner' questions. (Image credit: Getty Images)
