We are raising funds to provide essential support and accommodation to women who have been trafficked to the UK. The women we are supporting have no access to funds or accommodation yet they are some of the most vulnerable women in our society who have undergone the most horrific traumas.

Situation
In the UK the number of trafficking victims has risen sharply over the last few years. 71% of trafficking victims around the world are women and girls, largely hidden in society, experiencing unspeakable brutality at the hands of their abusers. Housing for Women is one of the only providers in London for women escaping trafficking. Without support, women are highly likely to be re-trafficked and are at serious risk of further abuse.
