Commercial Sexual Exploitation

We recognise that commercial sexual exploitation does exist in the Scottish Borders.

We understand that these activities can have an emotional, physical, and psychological impact on people involved.

Some examples of commercial exploitation:

• Selling or exchanging sex
• Using platforms such as Only Fans to sell or exchange images or videos.
• Pornography
• Trafficking
• Escorting
• Erotic performance and entertainment services

If you have been or currently are involved in commercial sexual exploitation, you may have experienced sexual violence. Whenever you feel ready to talk, we can provide you with free, inclusive, non-judgemental support.
