A WOMAN at the top of a charity that helps drink and drug addicts is now seeking their help herself after being collared for drink driving yet again.
Eliza Loftus, 26, was hauled before court after she crashed her Ford Ka into a tree while on her way home from a night out.
A roadside drug test revealed she was almost three times over the alcohol limit, just a year after she completed a 12-month road ban for other drink and drug driving offences.
Loftus was caught emerging from a bush saying 'I'm sorry' after police arrived at the scene on April 7 of this year. Inquiries revealed she had previously been convicted of drink driving in April 2022 and just a month later was found guilty of driving whilst under the influence of cannabis.
