Capita Conferences announce details of their annual Missing and Runaway Children Conference

Nov. 21, 2014 - PRLog -- As children who are reported missing from home or care continue to be identified as repeat runaways at significant risk of sexual exploitation, implementing effective safeguarding procedures remains an urgent strategic priority.
