Girls as young as 10 are being lured into prostitution by teenage boys who charm them, offer them gifts and gain their trust, the Home Office said today.
The Home Office is funding a video produced with the UK Internal Trafficking Group which will go to schools and youth groups to warn young people of the risk of so-called "internal trafficking".
It is also working with other agencies to find out the scale of the problem, a spokeswoman said.
She said the Home Office is working with police forces and health services - especially sexual health clinics - to make sure victims are identified and can be offered help.
