Prior to joining the NSPCC, Laura was a police officer for 15 years specialising in child protection, more specifically, online abuse and exploitation, and has first hand experience of dealing with perpetrators, children and young people and the impact abuse and exploitation has on them, their families and other adults in this arena.
