Today is Child Exploitation Awareness Day. The aim of today is to highlight the issues surrounding Child Exploitation; encouraging everyone to think, spot and speak out against abuse and adopt a zero tolerance to adults developing inappropriate relationships with children or children exploiting and abusing their peers.
To help highlight Child Exploitation awareness day a group of young people in Cumbria have put their creative minds together to make a series of films about child safety.
The young people involved in the production of these films are from across the county, and have helped write, animate and perform parts of the videos.
The three films, which use the stories of fictional characters to highlight the issues of healthy/unhealthy relationships, exploitation and online safety, have been made as part of the CSCP and NSPCC's year-long campaign IT'S NOT OK.
Olivia's IT'S NOT OK Story
Jax's IT'S NOT OK Story
Alex's IT'S NOT OK Story
It’s Not OK aims to inform and educate children, parents, carers and professionals about child exploitation, online safety and unhealthy relationships. You can find more about the campaign at: https://cumbriasafeguardingchildren.co.uk/itsnotok.asp
