Unseen is working towards a world without modern slavery and human trafficking. We work across the UK to support survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking, to prevent future cases of exploitation from occurring and run the Modern Slavery & Exploitation Helpline. Our three main goals are to: support survivors to rebuild their lives with our safehouses and helpline. tackle root causes by raising awareness with businesses and authorities. influence legislation to assist those affected today and prevent future cases. We provide safehouses and care for survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking, whilst our Outreach programme helps affected individuals reintegrate into the community, as a more sustainable solution to the issue of exploitation. We run the Modern Slavery & Exploitation Helpline, operating 24/7, 365 days a year, offering free, confidential information and advice to thousands of victims who have nowhere else to turn. Our expert Helpline advisors work round-the-clock to support victims, liaising with police and others to get them to safety. Uniquely, data from the Helpline provides critical intelligence that informs the anti-slavery work of governments, police, businesses, and other charities, ultimately helping more victims. Our Business Services team use their expertise to offer a range of unique and bespoke services to help businesses tackle worker exploitation in their organisation and down supply chains, creating a culture of continuous improvement. Alongside our work supporting survivors of Modern Slavery & Trafficking and equipping businesses to tackle exploitation, we seek to influence systemic changes. We do this by using our experience and research to impact and inspire transformation across legislation, policy and society. This includes the lived experience of our Survivor Consultants to better our response as an anti-slavery charity. Modern slavery and human trafficking are crises which can affect men, women and children of all ages, ethnicities, and nationalities. Often recognised through signs of abuse, manipulation and ownership, modern slavery can take many forms, including sexual exploitation, domestic servitude, forced labour or organ harvesting. There are currently over 50 million victims of slavery and trafficking in the world, making it the fastest growing international crime in the world. Nearly 100,000 people in the UK alone are affected, and 47% of UK victims are children. This is a number which has only grown in recent years as individuals have struggled to gain access to the resources they need because of the war in Ukraine and the Cost-of-Living Crisis. It is important, now more than ever, that these people are getting the support that they so desperately need.

At Donate4Refugees our vision is for every displaced person in Europe to be welcomed with humanity and respect in Europe and given the helping hand they need to find safety, peace and happiness in their new forever home. We work collaboratively to help ensure every displaced man, women and child asking for Europe's help gets the support they need to start their new life with dignity. That is, to have a place to live, enough food to eat, clothes to wear, warmth, lighting and hygiene. Along with access to essential information and education. We primarily do this by raising money that helps fund inspiring humanitarian projects delivered on-the-ground by our grassroots volunteer partners. We work together keeping people and hope alive. "Whoever you think are the most disadvantaged people in society, refugees are below that." - Trish Clowes, Donate4Refugees' Ambassador Right now, as you and I adapt to life amidst the global COVID-19 pandemic, Europe's humanity to refugees has scarcely been worse. Did you know that at the UK border in northern France there's no shelter and little food or water for refugees? That rising hostility is played out through police brutality and cruel policy? Meanwhile, on the Greek mainland, evictions are making hundreds of families street homeless, living in poverty. Whilst the Greek arrival islands buckle under severe over-crowding, lack of basic hygiene and appalling food within camps sending tensions inside the camps, and right wing violence outside of them, soaring. Life for refugees in Europe's hot spots in 2020 is utterly miserable. The hope in people's eyes is disappearing, the smiles are fading... Now that you know, will you help? Within this devastating environment our volunteers are too often providing the only lifeline to refugees. Donate4Refugees uniquely brings together donations from individuals, businesses and trusts to give grants and emergency funding to our trusted grassroots partners on-the-ground. Those volunteers supporting refugee communities on Europe's front-lines. Together we're filling shamefully big gaps in aid and humanity and, without the tireless dedication of our volunteers, refugee men, women and children would be struggling to even survive. We're acting now providing very real help, human-to-human, to many of the world's most vulnerable people. We only wish we didn't have to.
