What we do
Barnardo’s Early Intervention Service (BEIS) is based in Edinburgh and offers support within the South-East of Scotland. The service aims to support children, families and communities to recognise and understand the signs of child sexual exploitation, ensuring early identification of children vulnerable to child sexual exploitation (CSE). The team also provides awareness training to professionals through a range of community events from briefing sessions to full training days supporting communities to better understand CSE and strategies to keep children and young people safe.
