Tyrone launch ASAP Signage

The 5th of October saw Tyrone GAA launch their ASAP programme signage scheme in Kelly’s Inn, Ballygawley.  With each Club in the County already with an ASAP officer and policy in place, the scheme will now ensure that all are in possession of a large sign consistent with the visuals of the ASAP programme.  The signs will be displayed pitch side or in a prominent location at the Clubhouse and will promote the work of the GAA in respect of preventative measures around abuse of alcohol and drugs.

The scheme was made possible thanks to the financial contribution of the Tyrone County board, along with the Southern and Northern Drugs and Alcohol Co-ordination teams.

Tyrone ASAP officer Cuthbert Donnelly launched the programme to a full complement of Tyrone Clubs and the hard work of the ASAP sub-committee in securing the signs was endorsed by all present.  National ASAP officer Brendan Murphy and Ulster’s officer Aileen Tohill were also present on the night to hear Leo Foy of the Southern Drugs and Alcohol Co-ordination team complement the efforts of the GAA in addressing the challenges presented by alcohol and drugs in society.
