18th March is National Child Sexual Exploitation Awareness Day. Alongside Child Sexual Exploitation sits Child Criminal Exploitation and County Lines.
We will be circulating information over the next month on all areas of child exploitation. County Lines is the name given to dedicated supply lines to traffic drugs around the country
County Lines is an issue in Liverpool, with many young people recruited. Young middle class girls are the top choice for the drug runners as they are not likely to be stopped by the police or draw attention to themselves.
An information sheet on County Lines can be found here, with an informative video here.
