Description
Week 3 Ballymun Recovery Podcast this Week we feature Dr Laura O'Reilly (Urrus), Dave Fennell (Star Project), Father Peter Mc Verry (McVerry Trust) Peter is also a Ballymun Resident who...
show moreThis week’s conversations are centred around current drug issues in the local community with a focus on crack cocaine use in Ballymun. On the one hand we have a growing recovery movement in Ballymun, which is quite visible especially in Recovery month and on the other hand we have a persistent drug use issue which is also quite visible in the ballymun community. We know this drug issue can have a negative impact and massive consequences on the individual user, the family, and the community. Some people would say that the current drug problems and impacts, especially the widespread use of crack cocaine are more serious than what happened in the heroin epidemic. We discuss this idea.
Recovery month is vital to supporting the recovery community and breaking down stigma during the month of September 💜
But we still need to talk about current issues to try find solutions at a local and policy level.
Recovery is a journey of your physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental Health it’s about finding yourself again. Give yourself a chance to join the recovery journey and live Your life happier and in the present.
Thanks again to everyone who has supported this weeks podcast.
Cheers from your host
Jimmy Bell
