Drugs summit for Carmarthenshire
A drugs summit is being held later this month to help young people in Carmarthenshire.
Council leader Meryl Gravell has asked the Community Safety Partnership to organise the event.
She said the aim was to bring together a range of experts and services to look at how they could all work together to combat the county’s drug problem.
A number of organisations have been invited to take part in the summit which is taking place at the end of June.
Councillor Gravell said: “We must work together to find practical solutions and ways of supporting young people, not only to help them beat the addiction but also to prevent them trying drugs in the first place.
“By involving housing, children’s services, youth services and other organisations we can take a holistic approach to improve support services for young people and their families.”
