    Abstract

    This Trend Focus Report is focused on the increasing use of ketamine and associated harms by young people in Greater Manchester. It highlights key reported changes in use from this year’s GMTRENDS that include increased ketamine use by younger, school-aged children; changing patterns of use beyond a ‘club drug’ to wider settings and motivations for use; increases in the number of young people/young adults presenting to services for treatment (many with ketamine as their primary substance), incorporating mental health and urological needs.
