Members of the public in Cumbria are being invited to a workshop to raise awareness on child exploitation that is being held next week.

Cumbria Safeguarding Children Partnership and the NSPCC are hosting the Child Exploitation Awareness Workshop for Residents on Thursday September 16.

The aim of this workshop is to provide an understanding of what Child Exploitation is, how you can spot the signs and report concerns.

The event, which is taking place online via Microsoft Teams from 18.00 to 18.45, is interactive and there will be an opportunity for participants to ask questions if they wish to do so.
