It’s time to break the silence.

Today is National Child Exploitation Awareness Day and we’re calling on everyone to be the eyes and ears of their community.

Exploitation can be hidden in plain sight, but by knowing the signs, we can protect the next generation.

This week, we are raising awareness on the urgent issue of child sexual exploitation.
CSE is a form of child abuse where young people are coerced to take part in sexual activity, often manipulated by gifts, money, drugs or alcohol in return.

Today is National Child Exploitation Awareness Day.
If you only share one thing this week, make it this video. Who is behind the screen is not just an online safety slogan. It is a real safeguarding question.
Watch today’s video and share it.

“I wanted them all to notice” - This week is practice week and we are focusing on Child Sexual Abuse (CSA). It is estimated that 1 in 10 children are sexually abused by the age of 16. This week is all about strengthening our practice to support children and their families.
