The
presence of an ever expanding Arabic
population in the UK and its inevitable
exposure to drug use and abuse has lead
to some members of the Arabic community
in London to realise the necessity of
establishing a voluntary organisation
capable of working among the members
of that community, particularly the
youth in the field of drug use/abuse
and prevention.
It has been decided to call this organisation
Arab
National Council Against Addiction and
Narcotics
“A.N.C.A.A.N.”
The word ANCAAN that means Human Being
in Arabic reflects the concern of the
organisation, on the matters related to
the well-being of the Arabic community
in the UK. |
