Name: Katie Vacher
Age: 16
Year of the Fix: 2017
Location: South Shields
Campaign: To help people spot the signs of grooming

Child sexual exploitation is a very serious topic and unfortunately does happen.

 

We know people who’ve experienced this and it’s something that can really damage people’s lives.

 

I think many people think that people are only groomed over the internet, but there are other forms of abuse that we need to know about.

 

We’ve made a film with Fixers looking at how this crime can manifest in different environments including in a relationship or by organised criminal networks.

 

Hopefully our campaign can help more individuals to speak out and realise that help is out there.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with this Fix:

 

Anna Mellish

Shauna Harkus

Dominique Hendry

Abigail Pagan

Tamara Jones

Tonilea Miller

Chelsea Ellis

 

This project was supported by NHS England North CSE.
