We held a Drug and Alcohol awareness workshop last Monday in partnership with the GAA and the Drug & Alcohol Task Forces. Thanks to coordinator Christina McEleney from Donegal ETB for her very informative talk and to Nadine Barrett and Sligo Folk Park for giving us the use of their facilities and to all who attended the talk.
