Modern slavery is a serious and widespread crime that’s hidden in plain sight. An estimated 122,000 people are living in modern slavery in the UK today. Without long-term support, survivors are extremely vulnerable to re-exploitation, homelessness and mental health problems. Of our clients, 80% have ongoing legal cases, 45% can’t speak English, 100% have mental health issues, 75% are in unstable accommodation and 100% have no job prospects. Without support, survivors can quickly become isolated.
Snowdrop provides long-term, holistic advocacy and support for survivors in the form of Casework, Counselling, Community Activities and Renovations. Casework helps survivors navigate their next steps e.g. securing housing or finding employment. Counselling helps survivors process the psychological impacts of their experiences. Community Activities help survivors meet new people in a safe environment, & Renovations help survivors transition into independent living by creating a comfortable home.
