Modern Slavery
It's important to understand that slavery is a term that covers a wide range of activities one person obtains or holds another person in compelled service. However, we must not allow this to continue any longer! Human trafficking is a form of modern slavery where individuals forced into labour or prostitution against their will. This is a that can have devastating, financial, and psychological consequences for the victims.
As a society, we must work together to raise awareness about and take action to stop. This includes supporting organisations that provide services to victims, advocating for stronger laws and policies to combat trafficking, and educating ourselves and others about the signs of trafficking. We're confident that by working together, we can put an end to this terrible crime and ensure that all individuals are able to live free from exploitation and abuse. Let's raise awareness and take action to stop it!
Take a Closer Look
01.
Sexual exploitation
An individual controlled for the purposes of sex. Control may be in the form of violence, threats, deception, grooming, substance abuse, physical and/or psychological abuse.
02.
Forced Labour
An individual trafficked for forced labour is work done under threat of violence to self or family for little or no money. Victims can be further controlled by debt bondage. Deception, physical and psychological abuse are common tactics used by exploiters.
03.
Criminal Exploitation
An individual is forced to commit a criminal activity such as cannabis cultivation, forced begging, stealing or benefit fraud. Control tactics as those used above are used here as well.
04.
Domestic Servitude
An individual forced into domestic servitude has to live usually in a private household performing mostly domestic chores and childcare duties. Freedom is often restricted and can often work long hours for little or no pay, often sleeping where they work.
05.
Organ Harvesting
An individual trafficked for organ harvesting has their organs removed for sale without consent.
Just the Start
Join the cause and change a life.
Being rescued from human trafficking is only the beginning of a journey to recovery. Government support is provided for a limited time which is often not long enough for a survivor to recover.
Flourish exists to provide long term support.
We also support survivors who, for various legitimate reasons choose not to enter the government support system. Following support from Flourish, some survivors choose to enter the statutory system.
​
Flourish recognises that each persons journey is different and our tailored support reflects that.
We believe every individual should have access to the support services they need during recovery to provide a pathway to living an independent resilient life.
