NHS England (North) have commissioned two learning events for frontline health staff working in the North region. The focus of the event is on “County Lines and Exploitation”.  The second event will take place on 16th May 2019 at Horizon conference centre in Leeds.  The event is aimed at frontline health staff working in the North region and places will be limited to 100 per event so early booking is advised.

The agenda will focus on a range of perspectives on how young people can and do become exploited into criminal activity and will cover:

• The impact of knife crime and how young people present in health settings
• Criminal Exploitation and County Lines
• Lived experience of gangs and exploitation - Out of the Shadows
• Drama presentation on County Lines by AlterEgo Creative Solutions
