It occurs when a person or group takes advantage of an imbalance of power, and a young person is exploited by being given things, like gifts, drugs, money, status and affection, in exchange for performing sexual activities. The victim may have been sexually exploited even if the sexual activity appears consensual. Children and young people are often tricked into believing they're in a loving and consensual relationship. This is called grooming. These young people may trust their abuser and not understand that they're being abused. Child sexual exploitation can also occur through the use of technology and does not necessarily have to involve physical contact.</p> <p>Anybody can be a perpetrator of CSE, no matter their age, gender or race. The relationship could be framed as friendship, someone to look up to or romantic. Children and young people who are exploited may also be used to 'find' others to join groups.</p> <h3>More information</h3> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.theglade.org.uk/">The Glade</a> provides a service to men and women who have experienced rape or sexual assault.</li> <li><a href="https://www.wlv.ac.uk/media/departments/accommodation-services/documents/Sexual-Violence-and-Inappropriate-Sexual-Behaviour-2017-2018.pdf">Accommodation Services procedure for incidents of sexual violence and inappropriate sexual behaviour. </a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <div class="card"> <div class="card-header" id="collapse-head23911637-2"> <h3 class="mb-0"> <button class="btn btn-link collapsed" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#collapse23911637-2" title="Child criminal exploitation: County Lines" aria-label="Child criminal exploitation: County Lines" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapse23911637-2"> <i class="fas fa-plus"></i> Child criminal exploitation: County Lines </button> </h3> </div> <div id="collapse23911637-2" class="collapse" aria-labelledby="collapse-head23911637-2" data-parent="#accordion23911637"> <div class="card-body"> <p>Child Criminal exploitation is abuse when children/young people are manipulated and coerced into committing crimes.
