Join us for a vital event raising awareness of the growing threat of child exploitation in the South West.
Knife crime is rising—and it’s no longer just an urban issue.It’s here, in 
our towns
, 
our schools
, and 
our neighbourhoods
. Many of these violent incidents are linked to a hidden crisis: 
County Line gangs
 grooming and exploiting children—sometimes as young as 
6 years old
—to traffic drugs, carry weapons, and live in constant fear.
County Line exploitation is 
highly organised
, terrifyingly local, and 
growing fast
.
Knife crime involving children has increased in the South West
There are now 
6,600 active County Line gangs
 in England and Wales
Over 
70,000 children
 are caught in the web of exploitation
Escapeline is working with families across Somerset, Dorset, and Wiltshire—many who never thought this could happen to 
their
 child.
This is a vital opportunity for 
local business owners
 and 
professionals
 to better understand the risks, and how they can help protect children in their communities and workplaces.
This event is 
especially important for parents
. 
Parents are the first line of defence.
You will learn:
How exploitation actually happens—even in “safe” homes and communities.
Why children from 
all backgrounds
 are now being targeted.
The 
early warning signs
 to watch for in your child.
How to respond if you're worried, and where to find 
support
.
Real-life stories from experts working on the frontline.
No parent thinks it will happen to their child—until it does.
Join us and become part of the solution. Let’s work together to keep our children safe
