Merry Christmas!

Service DirectoryDrugs.ie would like to take this opportunity to wish all our site visitors a happy Christmas, and a peaceful 2012.

This year has been a busy, challenging, and rewarding year for the drugs.ie website. We have added a lot of new and interesting content to the website, and we have also been involved in planning and developing some exciting initiatives for the website; some of which we look forward to launching early next year.

Research relating to help seeking behaviour suggests that the online environment has become the primary source for people, as a first port of call, when seeking help and support relating to issues or difficulties they are facing.

With this in mind, we shall continue in 2012 to ensure that people are presented with high quality information - that is accurate, reliable and appropriate to their needs - when searching online for information and support, relating to a drug and/or alcohol issue in Ireland.
