A campaign targeting Manchester residents to make them aware of Human trafficking in the area is to be run by Stop the Traffik.

Created by Legas Delaney, the campaign will run to coincide with the second official Anti-Slavery Day in the UK, where global coalition Stop the Traffik will work with activist group ACT in Manchester to target every house in selected streets.

The campaign has been specifically designed to shock and embarrass, with the notice intending to make residents think that the notices refer specifically to their homes.

The flyer is a call to action aimed at members of the community, which aims to make it more difficult for traffickers to hide.

Steve Chalke MBE, founder of Stop the Traffik, said: “Human trafficking starts in communities and can be stopped by communities. Local residents need to know what human trafficking is, how it affects them, and what they can do about it. Our ACT groups are leading the charge against this heinous crime – a new generation of Wilberforces for the 21st century.”

Tim Delaney, founder of Leagas Delaney, added: “This campaign literally brings the message home by targeting people in their neighbourhoods. The slave trade may have been outlawed but much more still needs to be done to tacklemodern-day human trafficking.”

This campaign will form part of nationwide activities happening regionally to mark the second official Anti-Slavery Day.
