When exploitation isn’t spoken about, it’s allowed to continue.
County lines shouldn’t be a subject we avoid - the more it's discussed, the safer young people can navigate the risks.
By naming it, understanding it and spotting the signs early, we can keep young people safer.
Protecting children starts with the adults around them ✨
We support teachers & wider professionals to strengthen the safety nets that prevent exploitation 💙
Through workshops for children and training for professionals, we’re protecting young people across the South West.
In 2026, we’re committed to:
💙 Reaching more young people with education
💙 Supporting more parents & carers through our Parent Helpline
💙 Challenging the silence around county lines & criminal exploitation
💙 Working with more schools, professionals & communities
Happy New Year! 🎉
New year, same mission - keeping children safer in 2026 and beyond 💙
