Parents urged to contact support group over addiction worries

PARENTS seeking help for their children caught up in drugs were yesterday urged to contact a national family support group.

The Family Support Network (FSN) was formally set up as an independent body three months ago and has more than 70 local family groups affiliated to it.

It received initial funding for two workers through the National Drugs Strategy Team (NDST) and hopes to expand over the coming years to 10 workers.
