One of the aims of the Midland Regional Drugs Task Force is to identify and address gaps in service provision, having regard to evidence available on the extent and specific locations of illicit drug use in the midland region.

This report explores the perceptions of and responses to ‘community drug problems’ within the counties of Longford, Westmeath, Laois and Offaly. The report identifies factors contributing to the drug related issues at a community level within the identified areas, details current drug service provision and identifies gaps in service delivery.
