What is Child Sexual Exploitation(CSE)?

Child sexual exploitation is a type of sexual abuse in which children are sexually exploited for money, power or status.

Children or young people may be tricked into believing they're in a loving, consensual relationship. They might be invited to parties and given drugs and alcohol. They may also be groomed and exploited online.

Some children and young people are trafficked into or within the UK for the purpose of sexual exploitation. Sexual exploitation can also happen to young people in gangs.

Help Guides to help reduce online sexual harm (Marie Collins/NWG Network)

The Marie Collins Foundation is a charity working directly with children, young people and families to enable their recovery following sexual abuse involving technology. Working with the NWG Exploitation Network, they have created two resources to produce two new help guides, for parents and professionals, aimed at reducing online sexual harm.
