What we’re doing to tackle modern slavery
Modern Slavery Plan
The Modern Slavery Plan is our 2 year strategy to prevent modern slavery and to identify and support its victims.
The plan has 3 key aims:
- To raise awareness and understanding of modern slavery, human trafficking and exploitation. With the expectation that this develops the capacity of the community and professionals to identify signs and respond accordingly.
- To establish clear guidelines and pathways for referral into the National Referral Mechanism (NRM) and develop a wider offer of support for victims.
- To work with partners, including the police, health, and voluntary community sector to enable greater success in detection, disruption, and prosecution.
