Hooked on heroin at 14 years old: Holly Deane-Johns Pt.1

When Holly Deane-Johns was 11, she worked for her mum’s escort business answering phones. By the age of 14, she’d had her first hit of heroin in her bedroom with her mum. From that moment she was hooked. What followed was years of cooking the drug, dealing and using - as well as a stint in jail. But nothing could stop her getting her next hit. Not even attending her heroin addicted mother’s funeral in handcuffs.
