Situation
Without access to long-term support, survivors of modern slavery are often extremely vulnerable to a host of issues including re-exploitation, homelessness and mental health problems. Across our clients, 80% have ongoing legal cases, 45% have little to no English, 100% have mental health issues, 75% don’t live in stable accommodation and 100% have no job prospects. Without support, survivors can quickly become isolated. Snowdrop addresses the needs of survivors so they can rebuild their lives.
Solution
We provide holistic support to survivors which includes casework, counselling, community activities and renovations. Our caseworkers help clients navigate next steps, including housing, legal issues or police investigations. Snowdrop’s counselling service helps survivors process the psychological impacts of their exploitation. Community activities help survivors build confidence and meet new people. Finally, we help survivors transition into independent living by renovating their accommodation.
