"Ice is a game changer when it comes to drugs, and anyone who thinks they can use it recreationally without it having grave consequences is kidding themselves," Mr Oppy said.

A video featuring Melbourne-based Mr Oppy, who is general manager at the Ray Hader Clinic which specialises in drug and alcohol rehabilitation, will be broadcast to the students at Canowindra High School next Wednesday, September 2. The event will be emceed by David Smith, president of Cowra Rotary.

Mr Oppy's presentation will join Cowra's drug and alcohol specialist Amanda Anning, Orange paramedic Mat Pickering and Detective sergeant Leon Lincoln as they all talk about ice and the impact it's having on the people they deal with everyday.

Cowra Rotary's youth director, Dudley Isles said the forum will follow the same format as those successfully held in Orange earlier this year and takes a strong theme.

"The theme is Not Once, Not Ever," he said.

"We need to get kids to see the danger now."

Mr Isles said the forum will only take one hour, delivering the message in a high impact manner.

"The kids get the message all at once and it really brings home the dangers."

The forum will also be delivered to students at Cowra High School and St Raphael's Catholic School next week.
