The family of a young man killed in the Manchester Arena bombing have joined others affected by terrorism to set up a new campaign group.

29 year old Martyn Hett was one of the 22 people murdered in the Manchester Arena attack.

His brother and mother have helped to found the 'Survivors Against Terror' group, which launches today.

Its members want better support and more effective government policies to tackle terrorism.

Our collective view is that terrorism can be defeated, but only if we pull together as a country to fight it more effectively.

We will work to build a voice for survivors.

– Survivors Against Terror

The group plans to conduct a survey of those affected by terrorism, and to go into schools to talk to children about the impact of hatred.

They want to make sure support is consistent for victims across the country.
