Day to highlight child sex exploitation
Supported by Lancashire Police, CSE Awareness Day reminded the public and relevant agencies that we can all work together to inform, educate and prevent this form of abuse within the county.
Lancashire Constabulary has been recognised as one of the leading constabularies in the country for its approach to tackling child sexual exploitation and has been hailed as an example of best practice by the government.
