Operation Target

Dear Users,

Please read below our explanation and advice regarding Orgainised Crime Groups and our Op Target to try and prevent this problem affecting our young and vulnerable. 

Think You’re Being “Helped”? Think Again. 

Organised Crime Groups don’t always look how you expect.
They target people who are young, vulnerable, or going through tough times — offering money, protection or friendship.
 

What really happens? • Loss of control
• Increased risk of violence and exploitation
• Serious criminal records
• Long‑term impact on your future
 

If someone is pressuring you to hold items, move money/ vehicles, carry drugs, or keep secrets, this is recruitment, not friendship.
You are not stuck. Help is available.
 

Speak to a trusted adult, teacher, youth worker or contact your local police.
 

If you’re worried about someone else, report concerns anonymously to CrimeStoppers at Independent UK charity taking crime information anonymously | Crimestoppers 
Don’t be targeted. Don’t be used.
