When we saw Finley share his experience of ketamine addiction and recovery on Good Morning Britain, we knew he’d be a powerful voice to have as part of K-HOLE.

Through his own lived experience, Finley founded Ketamine Education Services (K.E.S.), helping raise awareness of ketamine, educate young people and professionals, and support others who may be struggling.
His work is all about turning his experience into something that can help others.

We’re proud to have Finley as part of K-HOLE, sharing his story and helping us have a more honest conversation about ketamine addiction, recovery and the support available.

Amber’s openness about her experience of ketamine addiction, the impact on her health and her family was a huge reason we wanted her to be part of K-HOLE.

But it’s her advocacy since recovery that really stood out. She continues to speak openly about what she’s been through to help others recognise the risks and know that support is available.

We were incredibly proud to see Amber share her story on Good Morning Britain, reaching an even wider audience.

Thank you, Amber, for continuing to have the conversation. ❤️
