Karen Anstiss

Joining us today is a woman with more experience in dealing with survivors of modern slavery than most.After working with traumatised victims of crime across three decades in the Metropolitan Police, Karen now helps to run Bakhita House – a safe house that takes a holistic approach to caring for female survivors of modern slavery. Karen chats to us about how her work in the police informs her approach today, the need for greater governmental support and how Bakhita House always makes it about the survivors themselves, not their trauma.For more information, visit our website or click the links below:Caritas Bakhita HouseThe Salvation ArmyIndependent Anti-Slavery Commissioner Hosted on Acast.
