A spokesperson for YMCA Heart of England said the child had fallen from a second-floor flat at its housing scheme, The Vineyard.

"Staff from the YMCA scheme next door attended the scene within minutes and offered our support to the family and everyone involved," they said

"Our heart goes out to the little boy's family and our thoughts and prayers are with them.

"We are working with the West Midlands Police and will be carrying out our own investigation internally so that we fully understand what has taken place. YMCA Heart of England takes health and safety extremely seriously and our residents' safety and welfare is central to everything we do."

It said The Vineyard, which opened in May 2016 "meets or exceeds all relevant safety standards".
