25 SET 2022 · This week’s podcast is the final podcast for Recovery Month, and the theme is recovery is for everyone: the individual, the family, the community and the young people. The guests this week are Mark Davis (Easy Street) Paul Brown (Ballymun Child & Family Resource Centre) Linda McDermot (Ballymun Family Support Services) and Angie Birch (Easy Street / Star). This podcast also contains a Recovery Story.
18 SET 2022 · Week 3 Ballymun Recovery Podcast this Week we feature Dr Laura O'Reilly (Urrus), Dave Fennell (Star Project), Father Peter Mc Verry (McVerry Trust) Peter is also a Ballymun Resident who also works at providing recovery options and interventions among other things.
This week’s conversations are centred around current drug issues in the local community with a focus on crack cocaine use in Ballymun. On the one hand we have a growing recovery movement in Ballymun, which is quite visible especially in Recovery month and on the other hand we have a persistent drug use issue which is also quite visible in the ballymun community. We know this drug issue can have a negative impact and massive consequences on the individual user, the family, and the community. Some people would say that the current drug problems and impacts, especially the widespread use of crack cocaine are more serious than what happened in the heroin epidemic. We discuss this idea.
Recovery month is vital to supporting the recovery community and breaking down stigma during the month of September 💜
But we still need to talk about current issues to try find solutions at a local and policy level.
Recovery is a journey of your physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental Health it’s about finding yourself again. Give yourself a chance to join the recovery journey and live Your life happier and in the present.
Thanks again to everyone who has supported this weeks podcast.
Cheers from your host

11 SET 2022 · This week we are talking about services with Hugh Greaves from the Ballymun Local Drugs & Alcohol Task Force and Karl O’Brien from Ballymun Youth Action Project.
This weeks episode is about how Drug services have evolved over time. We talked with a local Drug service provider about how they support the community and the individual, how services developed using a needs basis approach, to fill gaps in service provision.
We also chatted with our longest formed Drug service BYAP about how they work with clients and the level of support people can need when accessing a recovery intervention.
We also talked about some of the successes and programs that have been provided for people in our community over a long period of time.
Highlighting recovery options is a key message that recovery month aims to achieve during the month of September. This weeks podcast provides the listener with a wide variety of recovery options that aim to highlight specific recovery options available.
Remember reach out and look for support. Recovery is alive and well in the community of Ballymun 💜
Thanks again to everyone who has supported this weeks podcast.
