Drink spiking is a growing concern across the UK, yet it's a topic that many still don’t fully understand — or feel too afraid to talk about. In this honest and powerful interview, we speak with Colin Mackie, Chair and Co-founder of Spike Aware UK, a charity born out of personal tragedy. After losing his son to a spiking incident, Colin has spent the last seven years campaigning for change, raising awareness and offering vital support to victims and their families. Here, he shares his journey, the impact spiking can have on people's lives and what still needs to change — from the law to the way we talk about it.
