SocietyPolice seek charity help for teenagers caught up in online child abuse

As new pornography laws take effect, police warn that viewing extreme content can lead young people towards images of child abuse. Forces are working with specialist charities and partner agencies, and considering a pilot in which civilians visit children viewing illegal material to offer safeguarding advice without criminalising them. Police in England and Wales arrest about 1,000 people each month for online child sexual abuse offences.
