Tuam Joint Policing Committee will host a drugs awareness information night at the Mercy Secondary School from 8pm to 9.30pm on Tuesday.

Other agencies involved in the event are Tuam Garda Station, Youth Work Ireland-Galway, RAPID, Western Traveller Intercultural Development Organisation, HSE West and Youthreach.
Tea/Coffee and light refreshments will be available on the night.
