PARENTS and carers wanting to protect their children, and improve their understanding of how county lines drug dealing operations work, can sign up to join a webinar.

The online information session will help them spot the warning signs and will explain how and where to seek help.

National charity, Pace, will be hosting the interactive webinar.

Parents and carers will be able to listen to representatives from Pace, Barnados and Thames Valley Police.

They will learn about county lines and criminal exploitation, including how offenders groom and exploit children.

They will also be able to better understand what is happening in their local area, as well as learning to spot the signs that a child might be at risk.
