Deter and DIsrupt

This page talks about how we will work together to find out who is putting children at risk and take action against them.

Deter and Disrupt

  1. We will work together with different groups, like the police, schools, and community teams, to find out who might be putting children and young people in danger and stop them.
  2. We will look at places and areas in the community where there might be problems, as well as people who could cause harm, to keep everyone safe.
  3. We will help young people who have caused harm to change their behaviour. 
  4. We will take action against unsafe places or people, such as checking for problems with housing, safety, or fraud, and making sure they follow the law.
