New Home Office figures show the rates of cocaine exposure amongst 16-24 year old in England and Wales are up.

6.6% reported cocaine use in the previous 12 months compared to 5.1% a year earlier

The rise mirrors the adult trend, with cocaine use up to 3% for the year and 10% for all drug groups.

 Lower prices and no decrease in supply or availability contributed. Polydrug use is also increasing.
