  • My experience on the two day YMCA NCFE course was very interesting and also eye opening as i was informed of many different forms of drugs (some illegal some legal) and addictions and the ways they can effect not only the drug user but also many cities and many family lifes, I was also introduced to lots of information for those who wish to further thier careers or start out in the drug rehabilitation field, A great course for anyone interested in helping those who suffer or have suffered from some form of drug addiction, All in all a really good course.
