'My viral bee song changed my life'

A Ukrainian refugee has said her life has changed after a song she wrote went viral on social media.

Helen Martyniuk fled her home in Odesa following Russia's invasion.

The 22-year-old, who now lives in Pinxton, Derbyshire, recorded a video of herself playing the composition, called Bee Theme, on an organ and it has now been watched by millions.

"I've just been so happy that I've brought some smiles on people's faces, some happiness because [in] these bad times we need to find some light and some sun in the sky," she said.
