methods; how to manage behaviours resulting from child sexual exploitation (CSE); and considerations of managing a sex offender in the community

How to register for training to use ‘Looking out for Lottie’ and/or ‘Visiting Elliot’ Opportunity to sample some of the simulations on the day—bring along laptop, Ipad and/or tablet Increased confidence to respond appropriately to concerns about CSE and risk in sex offenders in the

community. ‘Looking out for Lottie’ Developed with NHS Health Education Kent, Surrey and Sussex, ‘Lottie’ offers health and social care and education professionals the opportunity to train on key aspects of online CSE - gaining insight into the process and implications for the victim and groomer. It is an interactive and immersive simulation, for use by both professionals and young people, on how young people are groomed online for sexual exploitation. It follows the story, on social media, of a schoolgirl Lottie and how she becomes involved with Jake, a seemingly plausible young man. By following the simulation, professionals are able to gain insight into the process, and the behaviour of the groomer and the victim. Two versions are available: a) For professionals: to learn how to spot and highlight grooming behaviour and, vitally, how to manage

behaviours resulting from child sexual exploitation

b) For direct work with young people: to learn about grooming methods to look out for demonstrated in a real-life scenario, to make decisions and understand the emotions and actions of the characters.

‘Visiting Elliot’ ‘Visiting Elliot’ is for all agencies involved in the supervision and management of offenders and is a key training tool for assessing risk. Based on a partnership between University of Kent, Kent Police and Kent Probation Service ‘Visiting Elliot’ is a home visit to a sex offender just released on licence. It provides opportunity to identify and then analyse risk factors in Elliot’s life. Official documents are studied during the simulation and it can be used individually or discussed in groups. At the end of the session, detailed answers are provided to promote reflective learning.
