Mapping Trafficking Survivor Support Services

The Human Trafficking Foundation has developed a number of short surveys, with the support of the Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner, in order to improve understanding of the support services available to survivors of modern slavery throughout the UK.

By carrying out this mapping of support services, we intend to create a directory which is a beneficial resource for those working in the UK anti-trafficking sector. We hope to not only identify the areas where particular services are available, but also those parts of the country where services are lacking. 

We have created a separate survey for each type of support:

- Accommodation

- Post-Identification Casework, Outreach Support and/or Individual Advocacy

- Drop-in Services

- Legal Advice

- Specialist Psychological or Therapeutic Support

- Vocational Training or Education

You are invited to complete each of the surveys which relate to your organisation's work using the links above by 5pm on Friday 8th June.

We are very grateful for your time and ask that you provide as much detail as possible. In order to avoid duplication we ask that, as far as possible, one person per organisation complete the surveys, however we recognise that in some situations this may not be practical.

The information you provide will be used to create a resource on the Human Trafficking Foundation's website. We will also be sharing our learning from this survey with the Anti-Trafficking and Labour Exploitation Unit (ATLEU), a charity providing legal advice to survivors of trafficking. ATLEU is working on a project to connect victims with available lawyers through a free online referral system.

We will also share information gathered through these surveys with the Modern Slavery Helpline for private use and also public use in their directory of services contained on the Modern Slavery Helpline website. Please indicate if you do not want your details shared publicly in this way.

If you have any questions, please contact euan@humantraffickingfoundation.org
