MK Youth Risk Meeting (TVP)

MK Youth Risk Meeting (previously known as CMET+) chaired by Thames Valley Police (TVP) is a key component of the Milton Keynes Local Policing Area – Violence , Missing and Exploitation Reduction Framework. The meeting provides a forum that brings together TVP Violent Crime Taskforce (VCT) , Problem Solving Team (PST) and Missing and Exploitation Team with multi-agency specialists in the field of missing, exploitation and trafficking from a range of services along with professional leads addressing Gang/ASB groups and County Lines.

The aim is to ensure information is shared across organisations and to reduce the possibility of agencies not being made aware of concerns at individual case level and ensure effective operational co-ordination in relation to addressing youth violence, Gangs / ASB groups and County Lines Drug networks , including work to protect victims and disrupt perpetrators of exploitation. The monthly meeting ensures timely sharing of information and joint planning and coordination to address risks impacting on children who have been identified as at risk of offending, exploitation or trafficking through county lines or gang/ASB association. The meeting will also highlight children whose patterns of going missing may indicate the possibility of exploitation and/or trafficking linked to county lines or gang /ASB association. Any child identified through the meeting with exploitation concerns will have an exploitation screening tool completed and a referral into the Missing and Exploitation Hub / MASH in line with current guidance if not previously completed. The meeting will share intelligence/information gathered in regards to local issues and areas of concern to identify outside influences operating within MK, or across county boundaries, targeting MK children and provide this along with additional information about locations of concern for the Missing and Exploitation Panel / Strategic Exploitation Panel / Cross Borders Group agenda. The meeting will map Gang/ASB associations and update risk gradings for individual children and groups and provide additional contextual information and evidence to support Missing and Exploitation Hub referrals to the National Referral Mechanism (NRM) and the Early Support Project (ESP)

Through these meetings CBG members will be a point of contact for other members to discuss individual concerns where exploitation may be occurring across counties. The CBG is a professional forum to enable good practice to be shared to enable members to refer to when reviewing their own local working policies or operational responses

It provides a forum to discuss information/intelligence relating to children missing, trafficked, exploitation concerns.
