WELSH TOWN TALES
Documentary series filmed over a year, following the stories of people living in and around Llanelli. This once-mighty industrial town struggles to survive the chill winds of recession. With bankruptcy looming, the local firm of Spencer Davies Engineering tries to stave off the receivers, Pembrey Airport attempts to expand the local tourist trade, and a different side of Llanelli is shown through the experience of one family who have lost a son to drugs.
Heroin addiction is plaguing our society as heroin addicts have to fund their heroin habits. The path of addiction start much earlier on in someone’s life. Cigarettes are definitely a gateway drug and normally opens the door to cannabis. I really believe that cannabis is the most deceptive drug that there is. We all know that heroin kills people yet cannabis sends a message that it is an okay drug, well it is not. For most heroin users once the heroin is out of their system they then have to learn recovery techniques to overcome their habitual practises and remain consequence free from the drug. Yet when you give up cannabis the THC in the drug deposits itself in brain cells and you can suffer from flashbacks and panic attacks years later. Cannabis is not a safe drug…Cannabis is not a safe drug… Cannabis is not a safe drug….This video is designed to encourage you whether you live in Wales, England, Ireland , Scotland or anyone of those countries in the “United kingdom” or even mainland Europe. There is no part of the United Kingdom that is unaffected by drugs, from cannabis to heroin. If you are either addicted to or affected by cigarettes, cannabis,barbiturates downers, crack, heroin, opiates, methadone, subutex, methamphetamine, cocaine, meow meow, mephadrone, legal highs, alcohol, ketamine, ghb, solvents, there is life after addiction and it starts today in your journey of recovery. If you have overcome an addiction, please send us a message to encourage other people who are struggling to overcome their addiction……Please contact us and join in our, recovery in community….

http://intervention-canada.ca ** The 12th episode of Intervention Canada profiles Tracy in Sylvan Lake, Alberta.

Tracy, 48, was born into a family rampant with alcoholism and abuse. With little parental oversight, she tried her first beer at the age of 11, and loved the feeling from the first sip. Although she excelled in gymnastics and other school endeavors, the seed of her undoing had been sown. When she hooked up with the father of her three children, Tracy fell heavily into a pattern of drinking and domestic chaos. After repeated visits to her home by police, her girls were put into foster homes where they watched from afar as their mother slowly imploded. Though deeply hurt by their mother putting alcohol before them, Tracy’s daughters have set their resentment aside and are determined to make one last attempt to save the mother they never had.

This episode features interventionist Maureen Brine.
