Hard hitting play to take to the stage

Schoolchildren in the Harborough District will be alerted to the dangers
of violent drug gangs by a hard-hitting touring play being staged here
next month.

Commissioned by Leicestershire Police, “County Lines” will warn pupils –
and also parents, teachers and professionals – about the national drug
trafficking threat.

Performed by three actors, it’ll raise awareness about menacing and
sinister County Lines gangs and how they target vulnerable young people
– and also educate children where to go for help and advice.

Theatre company AlterEgo Creative Solutions will be presenting its new
play to pupils in Year 7 upwards – at both Welland Park Academy in
Market Harborough and Lutterworth High School – on Thursday the 23rd of
April.
