children and young people they are responsible for.

sexual offences against children in organisational settings, and
new developments in interviewing approaches
Details recent cases to illustrate points about institutional
failures in protecting children
Highlights the fact that those who sexually offend against
children are a diverse and heterogeneous population, and the
approaches taken to protect children must address the range of
possible risks
Makes a firm commitment to the importance of multi-agency and
inter-disciplinary collaboration and is relevant in both community
and residential settings
Offers clear and practical messages and measures for
organisations to act on
