Nicola Molloy of Co Armagh was appointed as Hope UK’s Local Project Worker in February 2011. Her role involves recruiting a team of at least ten voluntary Drug Educators in the area and telling statutory and other voluntary groups about how Hope UK can work with them to help prevent drug and alcohol-related harm to children and young people.
Last year we appointed a Project Worker in Sheffield, using money given to Hope UK by Hope UK Sheffield when it wound up its operations. Hazel Moore’s task is to recruit ten volunteers from Sheffield and the surrounding area who can all be trained together to become Drug Educators in their own communities.
Seventeen voluntary Drug Educators are available to provide drug awareness sessions for children, young people, parents and youth and church workers.
