Episode 5 of 6
Carl meets a former drug dealer adapting to life after lock-up, and sees a young woman who beat her dependency on drugs and gained a university degree.
Carl goes to a unique court in Belfast – one that aims to address the root causes of offending by tackling drug and alcohol issues head on. Carl also meets an old friend taking part in this substance misuse court and finds out if weekly drug tests are helping him stay on track.
Carl heads to the north coast, where probation officer Stuart introduces him to a man who has recently been released from Magilligan Prison but has nowhere to live. And a former probationer overcomes her past issues with drugs to accept her university degree, making a pledge to help other people in the same situation.
