NWG Network (NWG), Marie Collins Foundation (MCF), The Lucy Faithfull Foundation (LFF) work together with Tink Palmer (independent safeguarding consultant) who chairs our ‘Indirect Victims of Indecent Images’ strategic group in their work to improve the response to families and children when someone close to them is arrested for an online sexual offence involving children.

Indirect victims can include partners of those who have been arrested for the offences and their dependent children as well as parents and adult children or even friends or work colleagues.

Online sexual offences include viewing indecent images of children as well as online grooming and exploitation of children.

We are keen to hear from anyone who offers a service to those families, or you have any resources that might be useful to families that find themselves in that situation.

Please do let us know if you are working in this area and we will contact you to find out more about your service and resources.

Kind Regards
