For Anti-Slavery Day, @HiddenVoicesBr1 organised an exhibition to raise awareness of Modern Slavery. Entitled “The Hidden Market”, the art prompted much discussion around consumer spending habits and how slavery can be hidden in many supply chains. https://t.co/AjAdF9X1VX

#CountyLines gangs sometimes target victims such as Emma who do not fit existing stereotypes and are less likely to be picked up by the police. Watch her story and share with others - we must raise awareness of this pernicious crime that affects so many. https://t.co/0fDYEnQAr7

Anti-Modern Slavery Ambassadors from @ChichesterDio raised awareness at the @ABDiocese "Festival of Hope" last month. An ecumenical team of ambassadors manned a stall at the Ardingly Showground and were able to talk to people about #ModernSlavery and being an Ambassador.

An important day as @dioceseoflondon curates, parish safeguarding officers & others gather to learn more about #ModernSlavery: what it is, how to spot the signs in our churches, how to report safely. So grateful to all our speakers today tackling this injustice in our city.

Lois and Maria attended an event last night at the House of Lords to launch the @RMIF_CWA research on a proposed hand car wash registration scheme. This is a sector that needs regulation and our #SafeCarWashApp has a key role to play in helping identify exploitation. #WeSeeYou
