The ‘Behind Closed Doors: Cuckooing Hazard Perception’ VR experience was developed to increase awareness of the warning signs of cuckooing victimisation, particularly for those whose profession requires them to routinely enter the homes of vulnerable people.

By now, you will have completed the VR element of this resource and also gained an understanding
of:
● What cuckooing is
● Who is most at risk
● The key warning signs to look out for

Each of the four scenarios presented in the VR experience reflects a different type of cuckooing, a different vulnerable individual and a number of red flags that indicate exploitation.

Did you spot all of the signs? Read on to review each case and reflect on what you observed.
