A children's charity has raised concerns over the numbers of children being held in immigration detention. According to The Children's Society, 697 children were held at all Greater London and South East ports between May and the end of August 2011. Almost one third were unaccompanied children. This could mean as many as 2,000 children could be detained each year.
