With deep gratitude, we present our latest Annual Review, which highlights the local and global impact YOU, our donors and partners, are having to disrupt trafficking, prevent exploitation, and push back the darkness of modern slavery.

The stories, statistics, and testimonials from others speak volumes about the lives we’ve touched and the progress we’ve made. I want to thank everyone who has played a part in enabling our projects and programmes to reach more than 150,000 people in a single year.

We know we’re up against a vast injustice, and sometimes the challenges might feel insurmountable. That’s why we choose progress over perfection. We’re aiming to get better month by month, and that means listening, learning, and adapting. I hope you feel the momentum we’re building. We’re strengthening, expanding our reach, and deepening our impact. Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we are changing lives, and shaping a future where freedom is possible for all.
