UK is one of the most cosmopolitan countries in the world with many people of different ethnic backgrounds living here in harmony. Narconon UK mirrors this diversity of culture and religious belief, sharing the common goal of resolving the problems of addiction and unburdening the people we care about from the destructive effects of drugs and alcohol.
Narconon Hastings is also a training centre for the UK and further afield. Currently we have three Narconon Nepal staff members here doing their theory training and practical internships.

Basanta Kunwar, the Director of Narconon Nepal, has recently visited the UK and Narconon Hastings. His aim was to raise drug awareness within the Nepalese Community and unite Narconon Hastings with the Nepalese people in England. Basanta has delivered a series of drug education seminars which he calls ‘Outness Programs’, to members of the Nepalese Community in various areas of London and South East England. As part of the seminar, Basanta demonstrates how each part of the Narconon Program actually helps a person to resolve the different problematic aspects of addiction so he can come ‘out’ of it, hence ‘ Outness Program’.

Last weekend, myself and Bal, one of the Nepalese trainees, were requested to join Basanta in Farnborough, Hampshire to one of the lectures. The event was organised and hosted by Mr. Damar Ghale, President of the NRN. We received an incredibly warm welcome. I was invited to speak about the drug problem in the UK on behalf of Narconon Hastings and was blessed with ‘highest honours’ from the Nepalese Community. Bal told his personal story to the audience who highly validated him for his success in beating his addiction and becoming an ethical and productive member of society. A far cry from his drug addicted life as one of the most prolific criminals in North Eastern Nepal.

So, united in our purpose to overcome addiction and the misery it causes, we will be furthering our relations with the Nepalese Community and helping them as much as we possibly can.
