A group of Dunlewey service users went to see the hilarious yet heartbreaking 'Myra's Story' in Belfast's Grand Opera House last week. The link between trauma and addiction was at the core of the show, making it very relatable. Members of the group that attended described the show as 'hard-hitting' and 'an emotional rollercoaster'. Thanks to everyone who joined us!
