 Celebrate World Drug Day!

26 June 2016

Even if you are not participating in a formal event on World Drug Day, take a moment to reflect on all the people struggling to break free of the chains of addictive behaviours. 

Remember the loved ones in their lives, yearning for change.

And take joy in the fact that recovery from addiction is possible.

"As I approach my 25th anniversary of recovery from addiction - via therapy and 12 step mutual-aid groups recommended by WHO - I pledge to support people endeavouring to recover, and those helping them to recover, just as I was supported and given a life purpose."
