Types of Human Trafficking
Human trafficking is the movement, coercion, and exploitation of people for profit.

Forced Labour
Forced labour victims undertake manual labour tasks that include but are not limited to farm work, construction, mining, work in the hospitality sector or factory work. Migrant workers are usually targeted for this type of exploitation due to limited understanding of English, their rights within the UK and limited support networks. With most if not all money handed over to traffickers there is no opportunity for escape.

Domestic Servitude
Domestic Servitude victims are forced to clean, cook, do laundry and look after children, with lots of tasks within private households. If they are paid it is very little, or they may be “paid in kind”, with wages reduced or taken to cover the cost of food and accommodation.

Forced Criminality
Forced Criminality is where victims are forced, coerced, or threatened into committing crime for the benefit of others. It can involve, but is not limited to theft, selling of counterfeit goods, cultivating cannabis, county lines (drug running/smuggling), begging. Any financial gain is taken by the trafficker. Criminal exploitation is a particularly underreported form of trafficking, as victims are fearful of being prosecuted.

Organ harvesting
Organ harvesting is a growing and very lucrative market. Victims may be kidnapped and forced to give up an organ; others may be duped into believing they need an operation so an organ can be removed and sold. In the worst cases victims are murdered so the required organs can be removed, and traffickers can profit from their sale on the black market.

Sexual Exploitation
Sexual Exploitation is where victims are forced to perform sexual acts against their will for the profit of a trafficker. They are manipulated into this through false job advertisements and grooming. These victims can be men, women, and children.

We have collaborated with a local candle maker from Co. Down to bring you this beautiful Rapeseed and Coconut wax candle to mark our 10th Anniversary.
This candle has been handpoured using only ethically sourced and sustainable materials. It has a fresh, clean scent that will burn for hours.
As an anti-human trafficking charity we always talk about shining a light on slavery so this candle is a great way for you to support our work and to spread that message in people’s homes.

Brave Book
Written by the Brave Bear Trust and published in partnership with Invisible Traffick “Brave” is the first book focusing on the pressing challenge of modern slavery aimed at 8 – 10 years old, and it will allow both parents and teachers to discuss a very sensitive issue in a child-friendly way.
About Brave
The book focuses on the disturbing experience of Bella, whose poverty-stricken mother is tricked into allowing her young child to be trafficked overseas. She is finally rescued from those who are exploiting her through the intervention of her precious teddy bear “BRAVE” and a very caring coffee roasting machine named “RORY”. The storyline is fictional, but it reflects the real-life traumas of those who are currently suffering from the scourge of modern slavery.
