It was a real pleasure to speak to delegates at the International Association of Women Policing annual conference in Glasgow on Thursday. I was able to share the impact of our sextortion campaign and the importance of working with young people at every stage to develop the messaging and content.

If you've ever felt discomfort about the whole 'speaking up' idea, or perhaps you've never really considered what Fearless has got to do with safeguarding - give this fantastic blog by Iain Corbett a read: crimestoppers-uk.org/fearless/new...

This morning, we launched phase 2 of our Fearless sextortion campaign at an outreach event attended by Minister for Victims and Community Safety @siobhian.bsky.social and young people from PSYV. Look after or work with young people? Learn more: crimestoppers-uk.org/fearless/pro...

Minister wearing pink top stands smiling holding large foamboard. 3 young people from PSYV stand beside her, looking at camera.

Foam board reads:
This is sextortion
It's a form of online blackmail and it's illegal. If this happened to you, it's not your fault. You are a victim
