VOICED: Elderly junkies find 'freedom' at Dutch old-age home

The video explores a unique refuge in The Hague for addicts over 45, like William, who struggle with addiction and have faced significant life challenges. Residents enjoy certain freedoms and support, including methadone treatment, while hard drugs must be purchased outside. The refuge has helped reduce local petty crime rates. Not all residents are drug addicts; some, like Tony, deal with other addictions. While some hope to leave and lead normal lives, their addictions often keep them at the refuge.

How does Tony's experience differ from that of other residents in the refuge?

What are the long-term implications for residents who struggle with addiction in this setting?
