General public
Members of the public have a right to be informed of
the issues in broad terms through awareness raising. They also have a
responsibility to report activity they suspect may be connected with
trafficking – reporting to police, social services, local authorities
and Crimestoppers.
Appropriate contact points and advice on what to look out for should
therefore be provided to them.
Liaison with ethnic communities can be useful in
helping them to understand the problems of victims trafficked from
their home countries to the UK. Their support can be useful in making
it harder for trafficked victims to ‘disappear’.
Similarly, liaison with community and employer groups
(including farmers’ groups and other groups who may find themselves
associated with labour exploitation) may be beneficial.
