A team from our London safe house, along with friends and family, will be getting their walking boots on and taking on the challenge of walking The White Cliffs of Dover from St Margaret's Bay to Folkestone (15 miles), to raise awareness and money for survivors of modern slavery.

Latest figures estimate that there are more than 50 million people around the world currently trapped in exploitation, with more than 122,000 victims living in the UK. From the outside, it can look like people working in normal jobs - working on construction sites and serving food in restaurants, working in nail bars and car washes, farms and factories. People working in private residences as cooks, cleaners and nannies.

Yet victims often go unnoticed, unable to leave their situation, or unable to come forward. Their captors will use involuntary confinement and threats of violence. They will withhold wages and confiscate identity documents. Victims become trapped in situations that they cannot escape from.

Medaille Trust exists to provide refuge and freedom from modern slavery.

We're one of the UK's largest providers of survivor services, with ten safe houses and six outreach hubs across the country. Our aim is to empower survivors to reach their potential and reclaim their place in society.

By supporting our team as they take on this challenge, you'll be directly supporting survivors as they journey towards a life free from exploitation.
