It is a sobering thought that illegal activities have been included in estimates of household spending for the first time by the office of national statistics (ONS), and is said to account for £11 billion of Briton’s economy- http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/illegal-drugs-and-prostitution-boost-britains-economy-by-11billion-9764998.html . Human trafficking is part of this deplorable story and Stop the Traffik campaign was launched at the London Olympics to try and raise awareness of the extent of the problem- see http://www.stopthetraffik.org/campaign/giftbox . SI Weston super Mare has joined our organisation’s plea to try and take a stance against human trafficking as proposed earlier this year – http://www.soroptimistinternational.org/blog/post/698-remembering-ning-un-world-day-against-trafficking and supported SI Bristol on College Green where the Gift box was installed to gain public attention.
