Message from Police re UNICO Live smartphone app

Message from PC Chris Thompson, Young People's Officer, West Midlands Police to all Trust staff

West Midlands Police has been made aware of a smartphone app called 'UNICO LIVE' (see below for picture).  

The app is publicised as age restricted 12+ and designed for young people to upload videos of them performing, singing and dancing etc.

It has come to our attention that there is inappropriate content on the platform involving young people which is being investigated.

The content does not appear to be monitored and we urge you to raise awareness widely to increase vigilance and reduce the likelihood of any child being sexually exploited.

Please share at the earliest opportunity with your colleagues, friends and family.
