Exeter 'Help Zone' opens tonight in centre

A new Help Zone opens in Exeter city centre tonight for anyone who's had too much to drink, has injured themselves, or got into other difficulties.

It'll be at St Mary Arches Church and there'll be police, paramedics and street pastors on hand from 11pm till 3.30am.

The aim is to give people a safe place to go for help or treatment, and take the pressure off accident and emergency departments.

The Help Zone will be open every Saturday from now on.
