35% of all recorded sexual crimes in England and Wales in 2012/13 (53,540 overall) were child sexual exploitation of under 16s. More than one in three of the children sexually abused by an adult kept their horrific secret to themselves. Four out of five children who experienced sexual contact from someone they knew were too terrified to tell.
That’s where we come in. We help over 530 organisations, reaching thousands of professionals all determined to give the right support for victims, and ultimately to one day stop CSE from ever happening again.
Our principal objective is to offer support and advice to those working with children and young people under eighteen who are affected by exploitation.
It’s difficult work, but the outcomes make it worth it. Many of the people we work with were victims themselves, or personally know people who have been victimised. Some of the cases we hear about are too horrible to repeat. We organise regular forums, training events and surgeries concerning the fight against Child Exploitation.
Help us support the anti-Child Exploitation organisations and save the lives of our children. Their future is in your hands.
We all know becoming victim to this abuse has devastating effects on our children, their lives and their family’s lives. Whether you are already managing the strategic or operational response within your area, whether providing the research and validated learning from past cases, developing provision or resources, everyone is aiming to improve the outcomes for young people and their families.
The NWG Exploitation Response Unit Trustees oversee the work and ensure that initiatives respond to issues as they emerge from the networks’ direct contact with young people. The NWG Exploitation Response Unit plays a vital role – we are the linchpin that drives the development of policy and practice in the field and we can’t do this without the support of generous people like you – thank you.
It costs approximately £320,000 per annum to keep our service running. By making a donation today, you can fund our work to train and advise organisations that support so many victims of CSE.
