”Community Patrols Don’t Stop Drug Use” – September 11th, 2025

That’s according to David Lane who’s the HSE South West general manager for social inclusion. His responsibilities include developing drug policies to reduce harm and supporting recovery and rehabilitation for those with addictions.

Last week on the show, Treasa Murphy spoke to residents living in Ogham Rian, Tralee.
