Custom helper not loading

Code:

class Welcome extends CI_Controller {
    
    public function index()
    {
        $in = valid_admin();
        if ($in == '0' || $in == '')
        {
            redirect('adm/login/', 'refresh');
        }

    }
}

Try removing the $this-> form the $this->valid_admin(). That should do the trick.
