Rachel Jayne Whitear (1979-2000) was a young woman from Withington, Herefordshire, who tragically died from a heroin overdose at the age of 21. Introduced to heroin by her partner in 1998, she struggled with addiction for two years before her death in Exmouth. Her parents authorized the publication of a police photo showing her in the aftermath of her overdose, which sparked a nationwide anti-drug campaign, including the documentary 'Rachel's Story', aimed at raising awareness of drug addiction in schools.
