Crime and reducing re-offending
Mapping sex markets
Since 2003, we have been mapping sex markets in the North East and Cumbria. This has resulted in a series of publications which can be downloaded here.
Methodology paper: mapping sex marketsThis paper presents how we carried out our mapping of sex markets in the North East and Cumbria. It provides a useful template for other organisations to investigate sex markets in their own areas.

CLIENT FEEDBACK
"Barefoot did a fantatsic job of our evaluation. In particular, their approach to working with our service users was very impressive. The evaluation has answered many of our questions, but also asked us more, which gives us a great opportunity for the future."Jayne Butler, Manager, The Comfrey Project
"As an organisation we felt that Barefoot did an excellent job of listening and understanding the needs of our review... We were thrilled with the final report; as well as being a very good read, the presentation and quality was excellent."
