Free workshops in support of Child Exploitation Awareness Week - 17-21 March 2025
Spot the signs and help prevent child exploitation
Thurrock Council's exploitation team are hosting workshops, training and pop-up events across the borough in support of Child Exploitation Awareness Week.
They are hosting free training for practitioners across Thurrock to learn how to spot the signs of child exploitation and reduce the risks. You can join the workshops from 17 March until 21 March at the Civic Offices and via Microsoft Teams. Spaces are limited.
