:20:22. > :20:24.things will take place. Young people will often be plied
:20:25. > :20:26.with alcohol or drugs and then exploited and abused
:20:27. > :20:28.by those adults. Often those most
:20:29. > :20:32.at risk are runaways, away from home and in danger.
:20:33. > :20:35.Girls like Amanda. My mam didn't want me.
:20:36. > :20:40.I kind of started drinking at 11 years old and I was getting

:20:48. > :20:50.If they're not there to talk to, you do end up doing stupid things
:20:51. > :20:53.and seeking love from other places. Did you think at
:20:54. > :20:57.the time that it was love? Yeah, at the time I did.
:20:58. > :21:05.We get a rare glimpse of young people who've come through a process
:21:06. > :21:08.which builds trust and confidence. The risks of going missing
:21:09. > :21:12.and getting sexually exploited. As former runaways, they know all
:21:13. > :21:16.about the dangers out there and the value of this - group support - and
:21:17. > :21:20.volunteering to help others at risk. If it can be a hostile environment,

:21:25. > :21:28.The first task is to locate those most at risk.
:21:29. > :21:33.So I guess you must knock on a lot of doors, right?
:21:34. > :21:36.Yeah, we do. We do a lot of return interviews for
:21:37. > :21:38.young people that have gone missing. We're with Danielle, out
:21:39. > :21:41.door-knocking to make first contact with runaways who've returned home.
:21:42. > :21:47.It can be a critical moment. If they can be reached, they may
:21:48. > :21:51.be saved from sexual abuse. It is all confidential stuff
:21:52. > :21:55.and this is as far as we're going. But it's also crucial to understand
:21:56. > :22:09.where young people have been, what they've been doing
:22:10. > :22:12.and who they've been with. We have a significant population
:22:13. > :22:14.of children who are in care. We've got levels
:22:15. > :22:16.of childhood poverty, we've got mixed demographics,
:22:17. > :22:20.we've got a night-time economy and we've got the city centre.
:22:21. > :22:23.And I would say if you've got those ingredients, there is
:22:24. > :22:25.a real chance that you are going to get pockets of sexual exploitation.
:22:26. > :22:27.It's a real worry. Clearly, then,
:22:28. > :22:30.the challenges remain huge. Nobody here is saying that this is
