Apart from losing my voice halfway through & my slides being in the wrong order, today's #ModernSlavery workshop for @ervas2007 & their NGO partners was a great success. Participants worked through one of our Modern Slavery and Human Rights PEC funded workshops & shared best practice. Humber Modern Slavery Partnership (HMSP)

What a wonderful panel. 🙂 This year, we discussed how creative practice can impact mental health and recovery. Freedom Festival Arts Trust

It was a privilege today to be the guest speaker at the Humber Violence Prevention Partnership Grimsby Hope Hack. Speaking candidly about my struggles with injury, mental health and identity.

This was a super day! We are working on a programme of proactive action for 2024 that seeks to increase intel in lesser understood areas; progress disruption activity; improve the use of civil orders and enforcement action; and safeguard more at risk adults and children.

It's been a busy year for Wilberforce Institute and Humber Modern Slavery Partnership (HMSP). I'm incredibly impressed with the progress we have made in 2023 across all our partner organisations in tackling modern slavery in Humberside. I'm proud to be able to coordinate our efforts and work with you all.

Spent much of today in beautiful Grimsby Minster with NEL Community Safety Partnership colleagues planning for the install of our Uncovering #ModernSlavery exhibition and 6-week programme of community and #KnowledgeExchange activity in Feb/March 2024 😍 #Partnerships Wilberforce Institute Humberside PCC

Wonderful that our Risk Assessment Service has supported Aldi Stores UK to improve its suppliers’ employment practices in fruit production.
