Summary
Crimestoppers has launched a urgent campaign exposing how drug networks are exploiting children in hidden “county lines” operations, forcing kids to move drugs, cash, and weapons across the UK — often under threat and far from home. With up to 11,600 children at risk, over 2,600 already identified last year, and real numbers likely much higher, the signs are clear: sudden gifts, new phones, secrecy, and repeated disappearances. This crisis fuels violence, community chaos, and even “cuckooing” — where criminals take over homes. Crimestoppers urges the public to spot the red flags and report anonymously — because stopping this before it’s too late starts with you.
