“This landmark legislation sends the strongest possible signal to criminals that if you are involved in this vile trade you will be arrested, you will be prosecuted and you will be locked up. And it says to victims, you are not alone
- we are here to help you.” - Theresa May
Although significant progress has been made in the fight against modern slavery, with more victims identified and more criminals convicted, there is still much to be done to ensure best practice across all agencies.” - Kevin Hyland OBE, Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner I encourage us to open conversations with our communities about the indicators; to recognise the harm that exists around the edge of cheap goods and services; to consider whether offenders are themselves victims; and when responding to anti-social behaviour, overcrowding or missing people to be professionally curious. I suspect, sadly, we will discover that modern slavery is close enough to touch- Chief Constable Shaun Sawyer . Modern day slavery is happening today across Devon and Cornwall, right under our noses. Slavery is everywhere and often unknowingly we experience this awful crime without even realising it – in nail bars, car washes, on farms and in the catering industry. Victims are very often bound by a “debt” to their trafficker, live in appalling conditions and face daily threats. –Alison Hernandez
