Bio

Full Bio

Kevin, who is best known for his role as Curly Watts on Coronation Street, has personally faced a long and difficult battle with alcohol abuse. Thus, he draws on these experiences and, along with his wife Clare, offers a frank and honest insight into his journey to recovery.

The couple’s work as motivational speakers sees them sharing stories that addicts will not only relate to, but will also give great motivation to fuel their own recovery. They are in the best possible position to offer advice and guidance as motivational speakers, as they recently established their own support service, Cornerstone Recovery Ltd. This provides advice, support and home recovery services.

Their incredible work and vast body of experience renders them the ideal motivational speakers and their services have been sought by a number of television broadcasters, including the likes of Daybreak, GMTV, BBC Breakfast and Lorraine. Viewers praised the way they refused to shy away from the taboos of alcohol addiction and their confident performance.

The couple are passionate and engaging, providing a truly unique and moving insight into the perils of alcohol addiction and abuse. Most importantly, they show that recovery is possible with the correct support network in place. They are available as inspirational after-dinner speakers for corporate conferences, charity events and alcoholism seminars.
