The resources are based around two videos that highlight the different ways in which children, young people and vulnerable adults can be exploited by criminals.
County Lines is our first campaign video, and our second is The Present. Each comes with associated posters, leaflets, and social media assets, and we have titled all of the resources in line with the campaign video it relates to.
For more information on ways to use the campaign resources on this page, download the Campaign Pack

The following images can also be used as social media assets. Please right click and save to use these.
Copy and paste the text below into your posts, and feel free to link them to any of the social media assets above
County Lines is a form of criminal exploitation and sees offenders moving children or vulnerable people for the purposes of selling drugs. They could be trafficked around the local area, or taken to areas with no obvious links or connections.

Offenders groom, threaten, force or trick victims into carrying out their crimes. Presents may be given to the victim as a reward to keep them on side which leads them to becoming trapped in a spiral of intimidation, fear and debt.

Offenders often give their victims burner phones to use. Does your child have extra mobile phones that you don't know where they have come from? Watch the full video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?

We’re working to put a stop to criminal gangs grooming children and vulnerable adults to commit crime.
‘Trapped’ is a form of criminal exploitation and sees offenders moving children or vulnerable people for the purposes of selling drugs. They could be trafficked around the local area, or taken to areas with no obvious links or connections.
Victims could also be criminally exploited and forced to carry out other crimes such as arson, violent offences, criminal damage, assault or robbery. They could also be forced to store firearms or money.
Offenders groom, threaten, force or trick victims into carrying out their crimes. If the victim doesn’t comply the offender may use violence, or threaten the victim’s family to ensure they get what they want. Gifts may be given to the victim as a reward to keep them on side which leads them to becoming trapped in a spiral of intimidation, fear and debt.
Some signs that a young or vulnerable person could be ‘Trapped’ and need help are:
Anyone with concerns either about themselves or somebody else should contact GMP via the LiveChat facility on the website or call 101 in a non-emergency situation.
You can also report details anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, or the Modern Slavery Helpline on 08000 121 700
Always dial 999 when there is an emergency or an immediate threat to life.
