A couple of days ago, we asked our community to chip in to buy train tickets so survivors from around the UK can join our action in London. Thank you to everyone who has already contributed! We have only raised a quarter of what we need to ensure these survivors are heard at the Prime Minister’s office. We don’t want to let them down! Can you chip in?

Next week we’ll be outside the UK Prime Minister's office with 27,127 signatures demanding better protection for victims of slavery in the UK. We want as many survivors from around the UK as possible to join us! Some live an expensive train ride away from London so we’re asking: can you please chip in to help cover the costs of travelling?

The lack of support available to survivors and work restrictions makes it near impossible for some to join us without your help. We want survivors to be able to take part in demanding better support for themselves and others with similar experiences. They know better than anyone what needs to change.

The UK Modern Slavery Victim Support Bill debate keeps getting pushed back but we’re not waiting any longer. We are taking this opportunity to make sure the government hears us loud and clear by joining survivors and partner organizations in the Free for Good coalition outside the Prime Minister's office.

Chip in to help make sure survivors get to speak for themselves next week!

Although I am extremely grateful to have been in a safe house, 45 days isn’t enough time to establish the needs in each individual case, let alone recover from them.
