In July 2024, Tom Crowther KC delivered his final report of the Independent Inquiry into child sexual exploitation in Telford. The inquiry had been launched two years earlier to investigate and tackle exploitation that had taken place in Telford and Wrekin. Returning to Telford and Wrekin to review progress made against his 2022 recommendations, Mr Crowther said: “What I have found has been without exception positive. People will not forget Telford’s history of child sexual exploitation – and nor should they. But in my view, the council’s approach now stands as a model. All involved deserve our very high praise.” You can read the full report at www.iitcse.com Learning from the past Working together to stop child sexual exploitation
