This week has been a busy one for us at K.E.S we’re half way through 19 sessions at Burnley college as we speak, we’ve also been into the Hollins and st Augustine’s schools along side WithYou. We don’t usually share the feedback we receive on here but I want to share some feedback we received today from a talk we did this week, this feedback makes all the pain and consequences in addiction worth while as it’s being used in a positive way to prevent some of our young people from following that path🤞
“Good morning Finley,
We just wanted to express our heartfelt thanks for taking the time yesterday to share your story with our pupils and staff.
The impact you made is truly immeasurable. Since your visit, our pupils have been engaging in thoughtful and mature conversations — not only about ketamine and the dangers surrounding it, but also about your personal journey, the challenges you’ve faced, and the resilience you showed in turning things around. Your honesty and openness resonated with them in a way that few messages ever do.
Several staff members have stopped me to share their gratitude, commenting on how powerful, moving, and necessary your session was. I’ve also received emails from parents who were deeply touched by what their children shared at home. It is clear your words reached far beyond the walls of the room yesterday and have sparked meaningful reflection throughout our school community.
Thank you again for giving your time, your energy, and such a meaningful piece of yourself. Your visit has made a genuine difference, and we are truly grateful”
