A huge fundraising effort – and the generosity of corporate donors – means it’ll be business as usual for the Island's confidential drug counselling service DASH.
Earlier this year the Drugs Advice Service and Helpline lost £100,000 of government funding and the Department of Health said it would partner with the Alcohol Advisory Service to provide addiction services.
DASH Director Shelly Stanley says despite the blow, the organisation will continue offering advice and support to drug users and their families.
She says DASH achieves great things on the Island:
Increase in disruption to Island's connectivity 'disgusting', says flight passenger
MHK welcomes support for adding more companies to FoI act
Manx Care asks visitors to wear face masks
Successful project to remove invasive rodents from the Calf of Man
