Crimestoppers national campaign: Modern slavery in plain sight.

Crimestoppers have just launched a national campaign: Modern slavery in plain sight.

Modern slavery is happening in our communities, in plain sight, and is deeply intertwined with our lives, without us realising it. People are being coerced and forced into exploitative situations which they can’t refuse or leave, every single day. With this campaign, Crimestoppers are asking people to speak up and not remain silent when the criminals are known to them, or if they suspect someone is a victim of modern slavery.

The campaign focuses on three strands:

• Modern slavery on highstreets
• Victims hidden in plain sight
• Exploitative recruitment practices

They reinforce throughout the campaign that anyone who uses this vital service will always remain 100% anonymous.
