A community response to mental health & substance use By MITUK admin -15/11/2023 www.madintheuk.com/2023/11/a-community-response-to-mental-health-substance-use/From our colleagues at Mad in Ireland: Mad In Ireland have been interested in and reporting on developments in Ireland relating to service provision for people with interrelated substance use and mental health issues (Dual Diagnosis). For example, reporting on the summer 23 Oireachtas discussions and offering a critical review on the Dual Diagnosis Clinical Programme launched in August 2023. We are delighted to repost this Dublin North, North East Recovery College podcast from the recent community development project in Dublin North Inner City about developing a recovery community. Whilst the project was local, the methodology, findings and indeed the broader context of the podcast itself can be generalised across the Island of Ireland. Watch this space for a summary of the project evaluation coming to Mad in Ireland soon. Listen to the podcast on Mad in Ireland

THE GAMBLERS ANONYMOUS FELLOWSHIP The fellowship of Gamblers Anonymous is the outgrowth of a chance meeting between two men during the month of January in 1957. These men had a truly baffling history of trouble and misery due to an obsession to gamble. They began to meet regularly and, as the months passed, neither had returned to gambling. They concluded from their discussions that, in order to prevent a relapse, it was necessary to bring about certain personality changes within themselves. In order to accomplish this, they used for a guide certain spiritual principles which had been utilised by thousands of people who were recovering from compulsive addictions. Also, in order to maintain their own abstinence, they felt that it was vitally important that they carry the message of hope to other compulsive gamblers. As a result of favourable publicity by a prominent newspaper columnist and TV commentator, the first group meeting of Gamblers Anonymous was held on Friday, September 13th, 1957, in Los Angeles, California. Since that time the movement has grown steadily and groups are flourishing in many other areas. In May, 1964, a member of Gamblers Anonymous, on business from the USA in England, attended a meeting addressed by the Secretary of the Churches Council of Gambling. The two men accepted that they must work together to establish the movement in Britain and a group was formed in London on 10th July, 1964. www.gamblersanonymous.org.uk/history
