CARE
Working with children at risk of sexual exploitation. Working with groups in schools as well as offering one-to-one and group support for young people in a variety of settings. Training for workers, teachers and parents around child sexual exploitation is available.
Commercial Sex Workers Project
A project supporting women working within massage parlours/saunas in Hull.
Visiting the massage parlours/saunas once a week, and independent workers as they request, it supports women by offering a non-judgemental, friendly ear. This can be around any aspect of their life, advice around housing issues, educational courses or accessing reputable childcare in their area.
For example, recent work has included supporting a woman in having her children returned to her from the looked after system; encouraging clients into services for mental health problems; helping a family flee domestic violence and access affordable legal assistance and encouraging clients to take care of their health. Support around health includes guidance around breast examination, and regular health checks such as smear tests. The project can accompany clients to these services and act as advocate to support in their access and treatment.
Also offering support and training around self-esteem and assertiveness for clients working in a CSW environment to enable them to take control of their lives.
The project offers very a holistic approach to ensure working woman are able to access support they need when they need it. If the project worker is unable to help, signposting and referrals to appropriate services is offered.
