Director says charity is trusted and confidential
The director of a drugs, alcohol and gambling support service says it is a trusted and confidential service.
North Douglas MHK John Houghton has criticised the closure of the charity DASH - the Drug and Alcohol Advisory Service - and claims that Motiv8 doesn't offer a confidential service or focus attention on problems experienced by children.
However, Thea Ozenturk says this just isn't the case and Mr Houghton has his facts wrong:
More bus service disruption over the weekend
Staff shortages likely to impact routes
Edge: People need to have confidence in elections
It was agreed a recount was the appropriate next step
Royal assent for legislation tackling period poverty
MHK behind act delighted scheme can now be rolled out
Youth programmes clear focus for St John Ambulance's new Dame Commander
Charity to host investiture and installation service on Saturday
