THE National Association of Parents Against Drug Abuse is interested in hearing from any parent groups who are involved in the fight against drugs.

We are a national association made up of voluntary street agencies, and our concerns are for the parents and families of drug users.

Parents and families of users suffer greatly when someone they love is involved in drugs, and our central 24 hour helpline deals with many calls every day from parents, giving advice and support, and is generally a shoulder to cry on.

If you are a member of an existing group or would be interested in starting such a support group, please contact us on 0345 023867 (calls charged at local rate), or write to NA-PADA, 14 Church Parade, Ellesmere Port, South Wirral, L65 2ER, and we will be only too pleased to give you detailed information on the association.

To those wonderful people already giving of their time to parents and families of drug users, you're all stars.
