A group of Tuam teenagers have scooped a national media award for a short drama that looks at the dilemma faced by teenagers offered drugs.
The group who are students of a County Galway VEC Back to Education initiative and members of the Western Youth Traveller Project won the overall Spirit Award at the Let’s Talk About Drugs media awards.
The awards are aimed at primary and secondary school students, college students and aspiring members of the media, to stimulate debate around the drugs and alcohol issue in Irish communities.
The group’s film, Choice, looks at the dilemma facing a teenage boy as he struggles to decide if he should take drugs like many of his friends.
