At least 4,000 women and girls are trafficked into the UK each year and forced into prostitution. Trafficking for sexual exploitation doesn't just affect women, children are trafficked too.

Anita's campaigning spirit lives on
Before her sad death, Anita Roddick, our Founder, was actively involved in the campaign to stop this modern day slavery. We are proud to carry on her work, and in 2007 we ran a campaign to support the Helen Bamber Foundation called “Trafficking is Torture”
