We have partnered with DIALOGUE to provide quarterly workshops for those leading on child exploitation for Looked After young people in foster or residential care and 16/17-year-olds in supported accommodation. 

We’re looking for organisations to identify a child exploitation lead in their organisation who can become part of the network, keep up to date with training and current developments around the exploitation of young people, share problems and ideas and provide in-house expertise in their own setting.

Child exploitation leads have access to:

• a regular 2-3 hour online forum every 3 months
• CPD, project/group work on shared goals and an opportunity to share ideas, problems and successes with other leads
• speakers on relevant topics
• facilitation by highly experienced leaders from the NWG and dialogue
• ad hoc initial advice and support to members in between sessions
• Ideas for policy development, staff training and support
• relevant research and publications as they become available so your staff are always up to date
• a telephone helpline for initial support

Membership (including at least 12 hours of CPD) is just £99+vat for a whole year which includes a subscription to NWG Network membership for their organisation, including:

• the latest information, news and research on the exploitation of adolescence
• a range of exclusive NWG resources
• access to monthly surgeries
• a discount on NWG events and learning offer
• (current NWG members can join at a 50% discount – be sure to tick NWG under the membership section on the booking form).

This is a great opportunity to ensure there is a real focus on the risk of exploitation for some of the most vulnerable children in the country and to create the capacity and learning opportunities for your team to develop.

Membership is open to anyone working to support those children in care.
