This organisation was formed in 2008 as the result of a trip to orphanages in Ukraine. The visitor discovered that many orphans, once grown, ended up in the sex trade. Then, finding that the problem is world-wide this group formed in UK to begin offering respite to victims. There are projects for both women and children. Safe houses are established and public awareness is raised so that people can recognise the signs of a trafficking operation.
