Protecting our children - spotting the signs of exploitation & grooming

What makes this session unique is that you’ll be learning from those with lived experience, who truly understand the realities of exploitation and grooming. This is a rare opportunity to hear first-hand insights and practical advice from someone who has been at the heart of this issue, making it easier to connect, ask questions, and get real-world advice.

This session will give you practical tips and insights into:

• What County Lines are and how exploiters target young people.
• How grooming happens both online and in person—and what it really looks like.
• Simple warning signs you can look out for that might indicate something isn’t right.
• What you can do if you’re concerned and where to turn for help.

You’ll be able to share your own thoughts and questions in a friendly, open environment. This isn’t a lecture—it’s a chance to come together, learn, and feel more confident in keeping our young people safe
