Protesters take to West Country's streets over climate change concerns

School children and environmental activists took to the streets of Exeter over climate change concerns.

The activists gathered at County Hall on Topsham Road after marching through the city centre.

In Stroud, where Extinction Rebellion was founded, protesters also marched to highlight the concerns around climate change.

The marches come a year after the youth climate movement was launched-inspired by Great Thunberg.
