A leading addiction group is on the verge of turning people away from its doors because a vital €19-a-day Department of Social Protection payment is no longer available.
Eileen Crosbie, treatment manager of Tabor Lodge in Cork City, issued the stark warning at the launch of the group’s annual report at Cork City Hall yesterday.
The senior official said the organisation — which helps people with alcohol, drug and gambling addictions, among other issues — has made savings to help ensure care given to more than 200 people a year can continue.
