Taken into care at two. The only kid in school with a social worker. Homeless and pregnant at 19.

Kay tells her story of growing up in a tourist village shadowed by addiction, fighting to break the cycle that defined her childhood, and returning years later to work in the very service that once helped her.

A Voice in the Dark shares the raw, real stories Scotland doesn’t often hear — about homelessness, grief, and addiction — but always with one goal: to show that hope and resilience can rise from even the darkest places.

Original music composed by Jacob Hodge.
