We believe
in a future free from
trafficking!

Caseworkers and Befrienders provide one-to-one, long-term support that is tailored to meet the needs of the individual survivor; they advocate for and empower individuals to move on from their past. Without support many survivors face overwhelming barriers to living independently which they struggle to overcome.

Therapeutic support is carried out by in-house BACP registered counsellors. Counselling forms a vital part of our service and is developed to help our clients deal with the psychological impacts of being a survivor of human trafficking.

Weekly English Classes are provided by Hope English School to ensure survivors are able to communicate for themselves. Through the Co-op’s Bright Future Programme, clients who are ready, are offered the chance of paid work-experience, with a non-competitive interview at the end. To help facilitate survivors’ entrance into work, we are hoping to develop new ‘Ready for Work’ classes.

Community activities provide opportunities for survivors to build friendships and to access life skills and hobbies in a safe and welcoming environment. Weekly community activities, as well as one-off projects, day trips and cultural celebrations form part of the Project’s person-centered support, to try and reduce social isolation and build confidence.

When survivors are provided with permanent housing by the council, we clean decorate and source furniture to create a safe and comfortable home for survivors to live. Without a stable home, survivors can struggle to feel safe which can create difficult barriers on their journey of recovery.

We recognise the benefit of working together to share knowledge of best practice with other organisations. We train all our own volunteers and provide tailored training and consultancy for other organisations to suit their needs; our extensive training is delivered by professionals in the field of anti-trafficking.
