There is much that you can do to help bring an end to human trafficking.

Here are some important things you can do to make a difference::

Open your eyes

People can be trafficked to any area in the UK – there may be trafficked people in your town or street. To find out more about spotting the signs of human trafficking click here

If you suspect an instance of human trafficking in the UK, please call Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111

However, if you have important urgent information which requires an immediate response, contact a Police Officer, your local Police force or dial 999.

Speak up

CARE campaigns for better protection and care for people who have been trafficked, a reduction in the demand for sex trafficking and a greater awareness of trafficking. Join us by making those you know aware of trafficking, make a presentation at your church/ community group and tell your MP that this is an important issue.
