Sickening and harrowing abuse, and the shocking scale of it, has been outlined in the report which found it was 'obvious child sexual exploitation was ignored'.

Child sexual exploitation "thrived unchecked" in Telford for decades with an inquiry finding more than 1,000 children were victims of sickening and harrowing abuse.The report has detailed the harrowing nature of CSE in Telford since the 1970s

In an echo of findings from other CSE investigations across the country, it says that exploitation was not investigated"because of nervousness about race", and adds the shocking detail that teachers and youth workers were"discouraged from reporting child sexual exploitation". The inquiry found that at one point, after 2004, council workers were told not to share detailed reports on CSE on e-mail, because the allegations"could start a race riot".

"Victims and survivors repeatedly told the inquiry how, when they were children, adult men worked to gain their trust before ruthlessly betraying that trust, treating them as sexual objects or commodities. "Such attitudes can only develop if exploitation is not properly recognised and challenged, and in my view, for many years in Telford – as in many other towns and cities in England - it was not."
