We continued to push forward with work fighting modern slavery within this six months as the Covid pandemic impacted millions. Our team celebrated key wins including the launch of a new strategic entity in Romania and the first conviction of an exploiter through the UK Navigator programme, which also won a national Third Sector Breakthrough Award. Alongside this, our policy unit was pleased to see the UK Government acknowledge that the scale of slavery may be 10 times higher than their estimates, as demonstrated in our 2020 ‘It Still Happens Here’ report.
