A former church minister who battled alcohol addiction after being left suicidal during lockdown has praised a charity which helped him turn his life around.
Ex-heroin addict Darren Howie, who is originally from Scotland, was left spiralling into a booze relapse after his marriage broke down during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The 47-year-old former prisoner reached out to Walk Ministries, based in Stoke-on-Trent, when he recognised that he was “completely broken” and needed help.
