Unseen is committed to working towards a world without slavery. It is currently estimated that there are 136,000 individuals affected by modern slavery and human trafficking across the UK, and over 50 million people being exploited across the globe. It's time for these crises to end.

Unseen supports survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking to rebuild their lives, helping them to escape their situation through the use of the Modern Slavery & Exploitation Helpline and sustainably rebuild their lives in our safehouses. We tackle the root causes of the issue by informing those who may come into contact with slavery in their everyday work of the signs and actions they can take, and influencing the government to develop a long-term strategic approach to support all victims and end modern slavery.

Most importantly, we cannot do what we do without your help. Thank you so much for taking the time to support this cause and help make a difference today and in the future.

Despite never having run any long distance before (or short distance for that matter), after hearing about Unseen I felt committed to raising awareness about Modern Slavery and its many victims. This half marathon is a huge challenge for me, but in taking part and fundraising I hope to help bring much needed attention to Unseen and the incredible work they are doing to help end modern slavery across the UK and the rest of the world.
