I have never seen anyone speak with so much passion about vulnerable young people and their challenges, as Leo does. His seminar was really inspirational! It's amazing the way he breaks down each step of county lines with a deep knowledge and attention to details. The training seminar goes into the root on how gangs operate, their drug dealings, grooming techniques and warning signals. Working with young people myself, I recognised clearly some of those issues that he was talking about and it touched home with me.

I attended an online workshop run by Leo to widen my knowledge on County Lines and find out more about the warning signs to look out for. Leo’s workshop was incredibly engaging, informative and so relevant – as a youth practitioner I now feel much better equipped in my role to understand the pressures young people face, as well as the warning signs and steps I can take if I suspect a young person is being taken advantage of, or is involved in drug trafficking. Thank you Leo!
