Very grateful for the opportunity to take part in this short documentary with Probation Board for Northern Ireland. Looking forward to attending the launch next week in Ulster University, back where it all began for me 🤩. This will be the beginning and end of my film career 😂

A very powerful but difficult watch showing the huge impact it has on not only the people in active addiction but also their families. The demand on services is way beyond the capacity they have, meaning people are waiting months to be seen. More services are needed urgently.

Love this, be the example ✨

Dual diagnosis is the way forward! Too many people are suffering due to being unable to access appropriate support. This is amazing work being done!! Leading the path for others to follow 👏🏻
