Drug and Alcohol Awareness Week highlights Mayo’s plight

Ireland’s cultural reliance on alcohol and other drugs will be put under the spotlight during the first Mayo Drug and Alcohol Awareness Week, which runs from November 7 to 11. Over the five days, a series of activities and information events will examine attitudes to alcohol and drug use in the county; explore the link between mental health, suicide and drugs and alcohol; and provide suggestions on ways to enjoy life without alcohol and alcohol misuse.
