Belfast City Centre is the "worst that it has ever been" as overdoses and deaths have become a common occurrence due to the widespread use of illegal and prescription drugs, it has been claimed.
There were six deaths within a ten day period with outreach workers saying that the mixing of various different drugs and alcohol is having a lethal impact on users, many of which have been struggling with addiction for years.
Many of those who have lost their lives due to drugs in the City Centre area are sleeping on the streets or using temporary accomodation and can find themselves constantly looking for somewhere to sleep at night.
