Getting high without breaking the law, but police say | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
Sold openly on websites and high streets, the subst`nces | :00:16. | :00:23. | |
produce a similar effect to illegal drugs, but are different enough to | :00:24. | :00:25. | |

A permanent site for travellers in Devon, but so far only six | :00:30. | :00:40. | |
applications to live there. And campaigning on the open road, | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
the bikers urging employers to take Police have told BBC Spotlight that | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
at least two people have didd in Devon over the last year | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
after taking so`called legal highs. Authorities are struggling to keep | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
up with the growth in the market where substances are | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
also constantly evolving. There's concern that young people | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
in particular are being targeted. This shop in Exeter sells all sorts | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
of smoking paraphernalia, Signs in the shop make it clear | :01:05. | :01:11. | |
they are not to be ingested or While no law's being broken, | :01:12. | :01:24. | |
the police are becoming increasingly concerned by the rising | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
number of young people constming I have come across a 15 year old in | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
a bus station, smoking legal highs That was a worrying thing | :01:31. | :01:40. | |
and it is our job to find ott where they've got them, how they have got | :01:41. | :01:48. | |
them and why they are using them. As well as two deaths in Devon, | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
there have been more than 80 incidents in the last year | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
of antisocial behaviour attributed Claims that young people ard | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
being targeted have also All schools and colleges will | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
be concerned about this. Actually, if they are using legal | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
highs, we want to make sure we are supporting them, that they know | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
about the health risks and the fact it should not affect their | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
education ` they can come and do The manager | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
of the shop was unavailable for an on`camera interview, but saxs his | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
staff takes a responsible attitude Whilst they do distribute these | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
leaflets across the city, the flyer He is also clear to point ott they | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
make every effort to ensure that the people they are targeting are | :02:39. | :02:45. | |
not under 18. While calls to overhaul leghslation | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
continue, the police, retailers and other agencies are | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
working together to raise awareness There have been only six | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
applications from travellers wanting to live | :02:54. | :03:03. | |
at a new permanent site in Devon. A million pound Government grant is | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
being spent on setting up the facility for 5 | :03:08. | :03:09. | |
families next door to an illegal That's due to be cleared | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
and restored to woodland once the new site is up and runnhng | :03:13. | :03:22. | |
in the New Year. You're looking at 15 pitch Forest | :03:23. | :03:33. | |
development, purpose`built for travellers. Specifically people who | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
have been living at this illegal camp at Haldon. It has been up and | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
running since 2001. Jake has been here several times and he whll not | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
be moving when the new site opens. We don't want it built and then they | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
asked if we wanted it, we dhdn't. We happily bought this existing bit of | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
land, but in the water and electricity, toilets, showers, next | :04:01. | :04:09. | |
door is nothing of what we want The new site has several parts that will | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
be divided into two offering toilets and storage facilities. There is | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
also a community hub. The btdget? ?1.2 million. Some will be tsed to | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
return the old camp to woodland If people like Jake and Keane, who is? | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
Especially if they have to pay rent and council tax. Moving frol a | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
woodland lifestyle to this sort of lifestyle is a big change. But with | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
only 15 pitches and 12 exprdssions of interest, we're not far off | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
achieving the 15. And that hs to a few months before completion. Of the | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
12, we understand only six have applied with four coming from the | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
illegal sites. Given that could be anything from 30 to 40 separate | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
families at the site, some people living nearby are worried about what | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
happens. I always thought it was the wrong location. You cannot build a | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
house there, night `` neithdr can I. But it does accommodate ` number | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
of the people. It does put ` ticking the box saying have provided sites. | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
Some people are in favour, ly concern | :05:24. | :07:40. | |
to see why walking along thd path kindly overweight attainment would | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
be an exciting prospect. I `m in Dawlish Warren, and that usdd to be | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
a possibility, but that camd to an end. We can all remember seding the | :07:52. | :08:03. | |
pictures, the ballast being removed and leaving the line suspended. That | :08:04. | :08:11. | |
is now a distant memory. Ap`rt from one piece of the jigsaw that still | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
has to go into place. The people of Dawlish saw this | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
arriving on the beach. This marks the beginning of the final bit of | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
work to replace the sea wall and the path. It is the arrival of ` huge | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
barge on the beach, another is on its way. These barges will be the | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
home for an Orange army of people who will be working on the new Sea | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
Wall. There has been controversy over this section as it will be the | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
same height along the whole length. Some residents say this will invade | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
their privacy. But walkers say they are delighted that the path will be | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
open to all. It will be much better. It is quite spectacular. Whdn the | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
path opens, will get people in Dawlish that can walk right along | :09:09. | :09:19. | |
the sea wall. Even leaders with `` ladies with walkers could w`lk all | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
the way along. The footpath is great. Lots of people coming and | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
going and it creates a lot of business. On an evening likd to | :09:30. | :09:38. | |
night, you can see the sea hs looking benign and beautiful. | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
Network Rail say they have put an additional wall so the coastline | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
should be fully protected. Work will carry on until early next ydar and | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
the path will be opened the hallway along. `` open the whole . | :09:54. | :10:06. | |
One of the hidden problems associated with mental illndss has | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
been revealed in new figures ` it's the number of youngsters | :10:10. | :10:11. | |
A charity has found that more than three quarters of children | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
in the South West with ment`l health problems have seen | :10:16. | :10:17. | |
As John Danks reports, they may have avoided school or | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
college for fear of what wotld have been said about them. | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
Chelsea McCabe suffered from anxiety and depression | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
She lost her father when she was ten. | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
By the time she was 16 and doing her GCSEs, she suffered | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
At first, friends are supportive, they say "It will sort itself out." | :10:33. | :10:41. | |
You start to feel like an old record when you keep going on and on | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
and your friends say, "Can you get over it now?" | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
You are so caught up in your own emotions and misery that yot can't. | :10:48. | :10:55. | |
In the South West, 80% of young people with mental health problems | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
One in four students did not go to school, | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
college or university because they were worried what people wotld say. | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
15% said they had experiencdd bullying as a result | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
We are doing work across thd country in schools to engage pupils to run | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
Having a more open environmdnt and people joining the campaign. | :11:17. | :11:26. | |
If the school and all young people are saxing that | :11:27. | :11:28. | |
they are standing up to stigma, we hope that it will make it a | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
nicer environment for young people to come forward and seek help. | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
The campaign is run by the charity's Mind and Rethink Mental Illness | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
They found that pupils were missing weeks and months at a time ` | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
the prospect of further education was too much to bear. | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
I was convinced the same thing would happen again. | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
I didn't want to go through the ordeal of making new frhends or | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
losing old friends or something happening again. | :11:53. | :11:53. | |
I'm quite happy with how my life has turned out, going straight hnto | :11:54. | :12:00. | |

here since the last ice age and suddenly they are being wipdd out. | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
By 2040, if we do nothing, they will have gone. They have adapted since | :16:09. | :16:16. | |
the ice age with our other native flora and fauna, so they will | :16:17. | :16:23. | |

he was to have a family. Now around thirty | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
of his descendants have gathered for a ceremony to present | :18:23. | :18:24. | |
his medals for public displ`y. These are William Newman's great, | :18:25. | :18:26. | |

new offers of exhibits have been We have had some letters donated | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
recently, They described | :19:47. | :19:54. | |

at Lands' End. Roaring down the last few htndred | :20:49. | :20:59. | |
metres of the 1000 miles from John O'Groats. However you travel, | :21:00. | :21:07. | |
getting here is a thrill. F`ntastic. What a trip. Quite emotional, | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
really, to be on the road together. This is a dream come true for the | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
two men who met in a spinal injury unit. 29 years through by and then I | :21:17. | :21:26. | |
got a phone call, we decided to do a road trip. We originally were going | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
to go from my house to hear is, but it spiralled and now we havd gone | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
from John O'Groats to Land's End. It has been amazing. It's a BMW 11 0 up | :21:37. | :21:52. | |

is to promote employment for disabled people. That sort our | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
workplace out. Let's get thd people who are on benefits out and give | :22:32. | :22:38. | |
them some pride and get thel full appointment. Most people who | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
undertake a trip, arriving here is the end of the journey. These guys | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
have to go almost all the w`y back again to go home. On the wax back, | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
they have taken a detour to one of the most famous addresses in the | :22:54. | :22:56. | |
country. Originally to meet the Prime Minister, but with David | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
Cameron in Scotland the Minhster for Disabled People Mark Harper stepped | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
in. Well done to them. A good wdek to be | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
a weather forecaster. Lots of good news. You don't have to do luch as | :23:15. | :23:16. | |
not much is going on. The high pressure has stuck. It is | :23:17. | :23:27. | |
unusual for its to be around for so long. Make the most of it. Ht will | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
change. First of all, thank you for all of the photographs of the moon | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
last night. If you want to send us pictures of the moon or any other | :23:41. | :23:41. | |
weather pictures, the e`mail is .. Less regrets in detail. This hardly | :23:42. | :23:58. | |
changing at all. It is a good day to get your washing dry, there is a | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
breeze and the sunshine is warm But it's more cloudy tomorrow, that is | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
the only real change. A bit cooler, but hardly any change. The reason it | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
has stuck is because there hs a vigorous area of low pressure off | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
the coast of Portugal. The weather has been pretty awful here, the low | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
pressure is here, to the North of that is the high pressure and this | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
area of high pressure is sttbborn. It wants to be around for the rest | :24:28. | :24:35. | |
of the week. It slowly drifts northwards, but that will not change | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
our weather pattern. We easterly winds that have been pretty lively. | :24:40. | :24:47. | |
Dusty to gale force at times. `` we have had. We still haven't dasterly | :24:48. | :24:52. | |
wind right through until thd weekend. The detail, tonight, the | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
cloud that has been bubbling up and fade away overnight. More cloud that | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
we are looking at, but that is a long way away. Overnight tonight, | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
clear skies, turning misty `nd chilly. Inland temperatures away | :25:07. | :25:09. | |
from villages and towns, th`t could get down to seven Celsius. Some mist | :25:10. | :25:15. | |
forming in places, a bit more of a breeze to stir the air. It will not | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
linger first thing tomorrow, I do not think. Temperatures starting at | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
11 or 12 Celsius. Tomorrow, the sunshine will stay with us hn the | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
morning, more cloud creeps hn from the East as the day wears on. That | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
cloud will spoil the sunshine from time to time. Perhaps the | :25:34. | :25:36. | |
temperatures at degree down on what we have seen so far this wedk. We | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
have had 21 Celsius, properly not higher than 19 tomorrow. Along the | :25:42. | :25:48. | |
coastline, here with a keen easterly wind, it will feel cooler at 17 or | :25:49. | :25:55. | |
18 Celsius. Pretty good for September. This is the forecast for | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
the Isles of Scilly. A bit lore cloud later in the day. Not as windy | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
as today. The breeze is an dasterly one and it is quite keen. Onto the | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
forecast, here are the high water times. | :26:11. | :26:17. | |
Some pretty high tides at the moment, because of the full moon, | :26:18. | :26:23. | |
they are beginning to ease ` bit as we get into the weekend. For our | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
service, it is again a not particularly good. With the high | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
pressure so close by, most beaches will struggle to see more than a | :26:35. | :26:37. | |
foot. A bit more of a swell through the English Channel because of the | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
breeze, so self`effacing co`sts of the far south`west of Cornw`ll might | :26:42. | :26:50. | |
see a slightly bigger way. `` South facing. Here are the coastal waters | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
forecast. Occasionally six hn the far West. | :26:58. | :27:05. | |
Here's the forecast. No rain on the cards, forecast right until Sunday, | :27:06. | :27:11. | |
sometimes more cloudy, but pretty good temperatures. We don't see | :27:12. | :27:13. | |
these temperatures very oftdn in September. Cooler at night time | :27:14. | :27:20. | |
longer nights now, temperattres could get down to six or seven | :27:21. | :27:25. | |
Celsius. For most of us, fine and dry weather, continuing right up | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
until the weekend. Have a nhce evening. | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
We love it when you say continuing until the weekend. | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
That is it for tonight. I'm due for your company. I will be back at | :27:38. | :27:44. | |
10:25pm. In the meantime, h`ve a very good evening. Goodbye. Goodbye. | :27:45. | :27:46. |
