Medaille Trust exists to provide refuge and freedom from modern slavery. That is our mission. Today, we are the largest provider of supported safe house beds for victims of modern slavery in the UK.
Modern slavery is an issue that requires both a global and local response. Governments and charities, such as Medaille Trust, follow ‘the 4 Ps’ approach to tackle this crime: prevent, protect, prosecute and partner.
We combat human trafficking and modern slavery by:
- offering safe housing
- providing support for victims
- raising awareness in communities, and
- Partnering with law enforcement authorities.
