Modern Slavery
Modern slavery can happen anywhere and to anyone who is vulnerable.
Making sure that people can report any suspicions they have in a safe and confidential environment is vital. If you want to report a suspicion that you think may be modern slavery related contact the Modern Slavery Helpline.
The Modern Slavery Helpline will ask you information about the situation so that they can provide the information to the police. Your call will be dealt with confidentially and you do not need to tell them your name or any other details.
Alternatively, you can contact Crimestoppers to report a crime anonymously on 0800 555 111
If you want to report a suspicion or potential crime call the helpline on 08000 121 700 or complete an on-line report
