Anti-Slavery Day: October 18

MJR is about addressing the legacy of past slavery, but we fully endorse the work of those seeking to expose the evils of modern slavery and trafficking. October 18 is Anti-Slavery Day. It provides an opportunity to draw attention to the subject and to pressurise government, local authorities, public institutions and private and public companies to address the scale and scope of human trafficking.”

​We would encourage everyone to find out what is happening in their locality and try to support it. The main ‘What’s On’ listing is here and the EA have a useful guide here.
