A Hull-based sailing charity which helps young people who're out of work could secure extra funding.

The Cat Zero project was criticised when it begun in 2008, with some calling it a "yacht for yobs".

But the group says teaching teenagers to sail and work in a team has vastly improved their chances in life, and they've now helped more than 1,500 people.

It was originally planned to take place in Trinity Square, but the organisers said the police had raised concerns over the terrorist threat.

About 13,000 people attended the first event in April, with many stalls selling out of food early.

Hull's 'Bee Lady' has been awarded the freedom of the city.

Jean Bishop, who has raised tens of thousands of pounds in loose change for charity while wearing a bee costume, was granted the freedom of the city by councillors.

Jean, who has severe arthritis, was named Fundraiser of the Year at the Pride of Britain Awards in 2013.

She celebrated her 95th birthday at Hull's Guildhall earlier this year with a special birthday party.

A ceremony marking this latest award will be held later in the year.

More on the news that former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan is to deliver a Wilberforce Lecture in Hull during the city's annual Freedom Festival later this year.

The Ghanaian diplomat, who was in the top UN post between 1997 and 2006, was invited to the city by ex-Deputy Prime Minister Lord Prescott.

The Wilberforce Lectures celebrate the work of Hull-born abolitionist William Wilberforce, who lobbied to ban the slave trade and introduced anti-slavery motions in Parliament.

Previous high profile speakers include Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Archbishop John Sentamu and Nigerian playwright and poet Wole Soyinka, who won the Novel Prize for Literature in 1986.

Lord Prescott says: "I am looking forward to welcoming Mr Annan to Hull."
