North West Today

Available for 27 days

A first of a special series on North West Today focusing on Northlands Addiction Treatment Centre as it marks 50 years helping people overcome addiction in Derry. We hear from Northlands head of treatment, Tommy Canning, who appeals to politicians to 'properly resource and fund' addiction services in Northern Ireland. Sinn Fein Councillor Christopher Jackson condemns a gun attack on a family home in the Waterside. We also get his reaction to the news that his party colleague Padraig Delargy will not stand for re-election in the next Stormont Assembly election.
