Acknowledgements

Khat chrystal meth report was made possible by all the people from the Somali, Ethiopian and Yemeni. Plus communities in Bromley, Southall and Ealing, North London, Birmingham, Sandwell, and Sheffield. Those who gave up their time to talk to us.

We cannot name them as our researchers guaranteed them confidentiality and anonymity. Essential liaison, advice and ongoing support were provided by Turning Point staff in each location. Particularly Bali Kaur in Bromley, from whose original idea this research arose. Thanks also go to Karen Tate from Ealing Primary Care Trust, who made her own research available to use. Many thanks to all the Somali, Yemeni and Ethiopian health professionals. Especially community interactors and Privileged Access Interviewers (PAIs) who advised on the research and helped to carry it out. The names and roles of the focus group facilitators and PAIs are listed at Appendix Two.

Research team
