So the Chelsea’s Tour 2016 finished last Friday,  myself and Cheryl Carter (PCSO for the City) have been involved in the  rolling out of  this production  over a 3 week period.  We organised a total of 33 performances to be shown in Schools and Community venues in South Cambs and Cambs City.   I have just been working on the stats for South Cambs   A total of 2,673 people saw the performance.   We still await the City stats.  Chelsea’s Choice  is a hard hitting theatre play raising  awareness of Child Sexual Exploitation.  The make  up of these people were:-

2,384 students in year 9 – together with some year 10 groups.
154 teachers
43 Professionals – including Social Workers, Youth Workers, Council Workers, Nurses and others.
16 Members of Cambs Police
55 Parents
21 Young people not attending a school setting.

The performances were greatly received by the schools and people attending the local community events.

National CSE awareness  day is  tomorrow –  18th March 2016

SPEAK OUT AGAINST CHILD SEXUAL EXPLOITATION – IT IS NOT OK IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO IS EXPLOITING A YOUNG PERSON.  LISTEN TO YOUR INSTINCT, IF IT DOESN’T FEEL RIGHT – TELL SOMEONE – #say something –
