We were delighted to be invited by Bristol based charity Unchosen to have a stand at their event on 2nd March entitled &#8220;Bristol stands against Sexual Exploitation&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unchosen believes that film is a powerful tool that explains Modern Slavery in ways words cannot.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The event was a chance for SI Bristol to watch the films created by Unchosen to raise awareness of sexual exploitation, followed by a\u00a0Q&amp;A on sexual exploitation and the implications of the Modern Slavery Act. The films were introduced by Police and Crime Commissioner Sue Mountstevens, an active partner and supporter\u00a0of Unchosen and were well received by all as a realistic and moving portrayal of the issues that trafficked women face. The Q&amp;A session was hosted by Unchosen CEO Melissa Blackburn, Kate Garbers Managing Director of Unseen, a charity working to support the victims of human trafficking and caseworkers from One 25 working with street sex workers in Bristol.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Q&amp;A session highlighted the difficulties faced by the victims and the charities supporting them and was an excellent end to an evening of positive awareness raising. Other charities such as SARSAS (Somerset and Avon Sexual Abuse Support) hosted stands and it was a great opportunity for SI Bristol to network and spread our message of Educate, Empower and Enable.<\/p>\n<p>Unchosen can facilitate film evenings and help you to host your own event to raise awareness of human trafficking.
