About Survivor Connections

Who We Are & Why We Exist

A survivor-led organisation supporting people affected by modern slavery & exploitation. Our vision is a world where every survivor has freedom, safety, dignity, & empowerment.

Survivor Connections provides peer support by providing information resources, referrals to services, trauma-informed peer support, & opportunities for social connection. We aim to create a Brave Space for connection, healing, & leadership.

Many of us didn’t know what modern slavery was when we were experiencing it. Here is what we wish we had known about definitions, legislation, and misconceptions. On this website you can find information and resources that other survivors found useful. We are independent and survivor led. Our goal is to create a space to share what we have learnt in recovering from situations of Modern Slavery.
