Robinson, Grace; Brewster, Ben; Brotherton, Vicky; Silverman, Bernard; Walsh, Dave

Abstract

This is the third briefing from research investigating the impacts of Covid-19 on child criminal exploitation and County Lines. Findings indicate that restrictions introduced in response to the pandemic have hindered the ability of youth workers to safeguard vulnerable young people and increased difficulties in identifying and responding to victims of County Lines exploitation.
