'I hope you'll support them in all of their work'

Manx addiction charity Motiv8 is hosting its 'Road to Recovery' event today, for the second year in a row.

It's a symbolic walk along the Heritage Trail, from Douglas to Peel, with members of the community invited to take part regardless of whether they themselves have struggled with addiction.

Participants set off on the 11-mile route from the NSC in the last half an hour (10:30am).

Jason and Mark are Peer Mentors with the charity:

Manx Radio also caught up with TV personality and now-Island resident, Noel Edmonds, at the start line:

*Noel isn’t really our new Breakfast presenter, though we’re sure he’d do a fine job!
