Celebration of freedom from addiction

Former drug and alcohol abusers will be taking part in an event in Exeter today celebrating their freedom from addiction.

They're staging a Recovery Walk from Exeter City football club to Cathedral Green where there will be music, stalls, and speeches from people representing local support services.

It's the first event of its kind in Devon, but recovery walks have taken place in other UK cities as a positive way to mark people's progress in fighting addictions and turning their lives around.
