What?
Modern Slavery awareness for churches and the community. Everyone welcome!
Modern Slavery is present in every major town and city.
We want to create a communities that are safe for all and where everyone can thrive and flourish.
To do this, we need to equip churches, faith groups, charities and residents to know how to recognise Modern Slavery in their community and how to respond, in a way that safeguards them and those exploited by this horrific crime.
This training will be led by Debbie Huxton. She is a Modern Slavery Campaigner, employed by Transforming Communities Together and funded by Lichfield Diocese Mothers’ Union in partnership with the Clewer Initiative.
