GET SAFE
'GET SAFE' is the Worcestershire name for the multi-agency support and protection for children and young people at risk of Criminal Exploitation.
This brings together and identifies the following criminal exploitation risks that children and young people face today across the UK:
Gang-Related Activity, Sexual Exploitation, Trafficking, Modern Day Slavery, Absent and Missing, Forced Marriage, Honour Based Violence and Female Genital Mutilation, and Criminal Exploitation.
GET SAFE is being launched across Worcestershire between 24th – 28th June 2019 – there will be daily roadshows across the county and social media and press coverage.
The GET SAFE Partnership is committed to tackling Child Exploitation and supporting victims and their families who experience this.
The GET SAFE partnership includes West Mercia Police, Children’s Social Care, Health, Education, Youth Justice, Early Help Services and the voluntary sector who will all be working together alongside other agencies and existing forums within Worcestershire. This brings a joined-up focus and approach across agencies in the community in the identification and tackling of Criminal exploitation of children and young people.
