Episode 4

Duration: 15 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 FMLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 Extra

D.L. Weller's powerful drama about child sexual exploitation and grooming.

As the pressure on Holly escalates she tries to stand up to Jay but when Jay won't take no for an answer will Holly seek help?

D.L. Weller has done extensive research with victims and their families and professionals working in child protection and safeguarding. Holding On To You, although fictional, is informed and inspired by these interviews. It explores a problem thought to affect tens of thousands of children, of all backgrounds, yet that still remains largely hidden and apparently unaddressed in many regions. Show less
