Story
People fleeing war, persecution or exploitation have no safe routes offered and no choice but to risk their lives crossing the channel in small boats.
Sadly, many lose their lives or face a hostile environment with a high risk of exploitation if they do make it across the shores.
Our team of swimmers are fundraising for survivors of modern slavery by taking on the huge challenge of swimming across the channel. By helping us in raising much-needed funds for Hope at Home, you can help us to continue offering safe homes for survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking, preventing exploitation and providing the chance for people to rebuild their lives.
Who are Hope at Home?
We are a registered charity specifically set up to operate a hosting scheme for survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking facing homelessness. We believe no survivor of slavery should ever have to sleep on the streets.
We recruit, train and support people to welcome a survivor into their homes for an agreed time period. We support the hosts while they have a guest staying and we work in partnership with agencies who provide professional support for the guest. We offer a Wellbeing Package, including mental and physical health support, to our guests to support their recovery and healing journey.
