Arzu Anderson volunteers for the charity at a drop-in cafe and said the experience is "humbling"A charity supporting slavery victims said it has people coming to them "malnourished" and mentally unwell.

The trust has seen figures showing there were 337 modern slavery and trafficking incidents in Swindon between September 2022 and March 2023., explained the figures do not give the full picture as so much will go unreported as criminals "prey on vulnerability". The charity says it has seen more people being exploited from Albania and Eritrea recently, but there are victims from the UK too.
