Derbyshire Police highlighting key Child Sexual Exploitation messages as part of national awareness day

Derbsyhire Police are raising awareness of Child Sexual Exploitation

Today the national charity NWG Network is asking everyone to unite against Child Sexual Exploitation.

Officers from Derbsyhire Constabulary are working with partner agencies to spread key messages around CSE by attending multi-agency events across the county as well as promoting the day via social media.

Chf Insp Malcolm Bibbings, from the public protection unit, said: “The day aims to highlight the issues surrounding CSE, encouraging everyone to think, spot and speak out against abuse.

“We are currently working with Derby City and Derbyshire County Council to roll out a learning package in schools relating to Kayleigh’s Love Story.

“This is a film that was produced about a 15 year-old girl that was groomed online and subsequently raped and murdered in 2015.

“The learning package is being delivered to almost every school child aged 11-16 in the county and highlights key CSE messages.”
