What if the person using you looks like a friend?Every day, young people are targeted by individuals who offer friendship, gifts, money, belonging and excitement, only to demand something in return. Criminal exploitation, county lines, trafficking and modern slavery rarely begin with threats. They begin with trust.Written especially for young people, including those in care and living away from home, Not For Sale explains what exploitation really is, how it happens, why it is never your fault, and most importantly, how to get help and stay safe.Through powerful real-life inspired stories, practical tools and straightforward advice, this book helps young people recognise warning signs, understand the tactics used by exploiters, build confidence to speak up and create a safer future for themselves.Whether you are worried about yourself, a friend, or simply want to understand more, this book delivers one clear message:You are not for sale. Your future is not for sale. Your life belongs to you.A practical, empowering and potentially life-changing guide for young people, carers, teachers, social workers and anyone committed to keeping children safe.
