The prevalence of Child Criminal Exploitation (CCE) and the County Lines phenomenon with Space

‘It doesn’t require you to be qualified and you don’t need to be an expert’

This is our third episode of Season 1 ‘For the 1’ podcast!

In this episode Mel talks with SPACE who works anonymously. SPACE talks about their vital work in raising awareness of Child Criminal Exploitation and County Lines within the UK, but also how they guide and support parents who are living through this with members of their family.

There is a trigger warning with todays episode, as there is mention of grooming, exploitation and modern slavery.
