We are asking for your help to keep children in Cambridgeshire safe.

Child exploitation can happen anywhere – in any town, any street, and to any family. You may feel it would never affect someone you know, but the reality is that it can, and it does.

As we mark Child Exploitation Awareness Day, we’re asking you to take a moment to:

·  Learn the signs of child exploitation

·  Speak with your children, or the young people in your life, about any concerns they may have

·  Reach out to us if something doesn’t feel right

Sometimes, a single conversation can make all the difference.

To learn more about the warning signs, how exploitation happens, and how to report concerns, please visit the Cambridgeshire Constabulary dedicated web page by clicking here.
