Prevention Programme for Child Exploitation (360G-cabinetoffice-G2-GA-202107452393-22-23)

This grant will fund the delivery of The Children Society (TCS) Prevention Programme and the 10 specialist prevention officers, who are Childrens Society members of staff. Each prevention officer covers a designated policing region across England and Wales and work to improve the regional response to wide ranging types of exploitation and abuse (including Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation, Modern Slavery and County Lines). This will support national capability and local activity and will develop expertise in the workforce. Prevention activities will include but are not limited to providing bespoke training, best practice guidance, resource creation, operational support to policing and input into local area exploitation policies and strategies.
