Over 3,500 calls for addiction support are expected this January following a challenging Christmas period.
The Rutland Centre is anticipating a record-breaking month.
The centre, based in Knocklyon, Co Dublin, operated at full capacity over Christmas.
Last January, it received more than 3,000 calls which highlights the growing need for addiction support in Ireland.
The Rutland Centre has launched a comprehensive six-week free New Year campaign to provide support, guidance, and resources to individuals and families impacted by addiction.
It works on a first come-first served basis.
