Post-rehab in Cork facility opens after 12 years
A three-storey bed-and-breakfast that was idle for 12 years after it was bought by a charity as a step-down facility for people with addiction is to officially open today. This follows an allocation of operational funding by the HSE.
The Teach Mhuire site, on Western Road in Cork City, was refurbished 12 years ago ago by the addiction treatment charity Cuan Mhuire as a step-down facility for men exiting rehab. However, they were unable to obtain the €300,000 in annual funding required to run it.
