Clive spoke from his own experience as a Detective Chief Inspector a few years ago when he worked in Brixton. The situation with slavery has not changed\u00a0 in over 150 years from when it was abolished. There are over 40 million slaves globally and 71% of them are women and girls. <\/span><span class=\"im\">Clive suggested that the\u00a0 action we can take is to deprive those who are doing the trafficking of an income. For example, not to give money to people we see on the streets, buy them a cup of coffee or give them a sandwich instead. He also stressed the importance of multi agency working with police, GPs, teachers, social workers etc. <\/span>Below are some links to find out more about Modern Day Slavery:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.modernslaveryhelpline.org\">https:\/\/www.modernslaveryhelpline.org\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/a> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.stop-slavery.co.uk\/\"> http:\/\/www.stop-slavery.co.uk\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.antislaverycommissioner.co.uk\/\">http:\/\/www.antislaverycommissioner.co.uk\/\u00a0<\/a> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cps.gov.uk\/modernslavery\">https:\/\/www.cps.gov.uk\/modernslavery<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you suspect anything or need help, you can contact the\u00a0 Modern Day Slavery helpline: <b>08000 121 700 <\/b>or the police or your local authority.\u00a0 In the short video clip of the presentation, you will hear and see in which jobs slavery exists in the UK today.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 780px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-5035-1\" width=\"780\" height=\"411\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/epsom-and-district\/files\/2020\/11\/Modern-Day-Slavery-CD.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/epsom-and-district\/files\/2020\/11\/Modern-Day-Slavery-CD.mp4\">https:\/\/sigbi.org\/epsom-and-district\/files\/2020\/11\/Modern-Day-Slavery-CD.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Last night, we listened to a talk about Modern Day Slavery with\u00a0 Dr Clive&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":771,"featured_media":4846,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5035","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-club-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What does slavery look like in the UK today? | News | Blog | Events | Women inspiring action, transforming lives<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Women inspiring action, transforming lives : Blog &amp; News : What does slavery look like in the UK today? : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of Women inspiring action, transforming lives .
