Kent mum's campaign for better drugs education
BBC24 Aug 2022
Excerpt:
The mother and best friend of a Kent teenager who died after taking tramadol have called for better drugs education in schools.
William Horley died in 2018, aged 17, after taking the opiate with a friend.
Now his mum Kim Webster and best friend Charlie Jeer have teamed up with the Kenward Trust charity.
They say the number of young people taking drugs is growing, and want to help teachers tackle the issue.
They would like to see more hours dedicated to teaching drugs awareness, as well as a more structured guidance about the exact content of these lessons, and they have created lesson plans for teachers to use.
