PC Sharon Major, of West Mercia Police, said the volunteers help people get home, external, provide water or simply have a chat.

"The work the street pastors carry out is vital in helping us keep those enjoying a night out safe, especially people who may have become separated from their friends during a night out, or may be on their own," she said.

“By having them present near busy clubs and bars, not only works as a deterrent to possible perpetrators, but also allows them to help people who may be having a difficult time."

Reverend Keith Osmund-Smith, from the group, added: "It is a very rewarding job helping to keep the public safe when they may be at their most vulnerable.”

The former England midfielder John Barnes has said we spend a disproportionate amount of time talking about racism in football and should spend more time talking about racism in society instead.

Speaking to BBC Radio Shropshire, he welcomed the news that Shrewsbury Town have banned three fans following allegations of racist abuse during Saturday's League One game against MK Dons.

But he said: "They aren't the reason why black kids are stabbing each other in the inner cities.

"They aren't the reason that black people can't get an education, housing, access to social care, or general respect and we're neglecting that by talking about racism in football so much."

He praised the Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford for the work he has done in campaigning for under-privileged families.

He added: "If all the black players were to do that as well as talking about how terrible it is in football, then maybe we can start to get rid of racism."
