A Narcotics Anonymous (NA) Estcourt group will be launched this Thursday (November 15). A meeting to introduce the group will be held at Forderville Primary School from 7pm to 8pm.

The purpose of NA is to provide literature, counselling and aftercare to people who are battling with drug addiction.
