The father-of-four was killed in the early hours of October 12 in Raven Crescent, Ashmore Park.

Since his death, seven people have been arrested and two charged.

Now, the family of the 31-year-old has received more than £11,000 in generous donations.

The £10,000 target on the Just Giving page was smashed just months after Mr Helm's death.

The user who set up the page, titled 'C Hannon' confirmed that they would be withdrawing the money soon, thanking people for their donations.

Danny Cooper, aged 31, of Coneyford Road, Shard End, and 27-year-old Ashley Wilson, of Guernsey Drive, Solihull, will both appear at Wolverhampton Crown Court on December 14 charged with Mr Helm's murder.
