EDGE OF THE CITY Thursday 26 August at 9pm A chance to see the controversial documentary, Edge of the City, originally withdrawn from the schedules by Channel 4 in May. This 'unprecedented' decision followed a warning from the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police that the timing of the programme would increase community tensions and provoke public disorder in Bradford. Edge of the City provides a powerful snapshot of the darker side of urban life in Britain. Following Bradford Social Services over one year, the programme meets people who have a great - and often costly - dependency on the state, and the social workers who pick up the pieces. Through the stories of people struggling to cope, the programme gains an intimate insight into the lives of those at risk, ignored and often despised. More information and support about some of the issues seen in the programme can be found in the following 4Health features and in a recorded helpline, details of which will be provided after the programme. Child prostitution How do children end up working as prostitutes?
