Stafford: Staffordshire smart alert - Raising awareness of county lines

We’re reaching out to local communities across Staffordshire to raise awareness of county lines so we can all work together to help protect those most vulnerable to exploitation.

If you’re not sure what county lines are, here’s a quick explanation.

Criminal gangs often target vulnerable young people and exploit them into carrying or distributing drugs, normally outside of the area they live in.

As the drugs cross county boundaries, this type of activity is called ‘county lines’.

Young people may not realise that they are being groomed into county lines drug distribution as criminal gangs use the lure of gifts or cash, and before they realise it the young person can find themselves trapped in a dangerous situation.

This grooming can occur online or face-to-face and may involve a stranger or someone they already know.

If you want to know more, take a look at our latest news story about county lines here: Spot the signs of county lines exploitation in the young and vulnerable | Staffordshire Police
