What are county lines gangs and cuckooing? Why are they an issue, and why do driver and rider trainers need to be aware of them? What dangers do they pose, and to whom? In this session, we’ll explore these important and topical safeguarding concerns, looking at who may be affected, how to spot the signs, and what action to take. A case study and questions at the end of the session will help you apply these concepts to your everyday training.
