Abstract
This article describes the role of a police liaison officer working at a large Scottish residential education and care centre. Four main aspects of the role are outlined: child protection; preventive education about online safety, substance abuse and other harms; following up concerns raised about criminal activity by and towards young people; and being the first point of contact for missing children and young people. The article explains the philosophy behind the role and the author’s perceptions of lessons learned.
