The University of Bedfordshire has helped write a major new report looking at gang-related child sexual abuse in the UK. The report, released today by the Office of the Children's Commissioner (OCC), details how vulnerable children can end up being abused within gang settings and what can be done to help prevent this awful situation continuing. The initial recommendations include effective data sharing and awareness raising of the issue.
The OCC report can be downloaded from here. In addition, there are various interviews and audio clips detailing how the BBC reported the story here.
Finally, you can read UoB's own account of the report's release by having a look here.
If your studies in any way relate to issues of criminology or child protection I do urge you to take a look at what UoB, in some cases your own lecturers, have helped to produce. Thanks.
