My Mind is Free

Modern Day Slavery Awareness Event

This event is run by Perth & Kinross Violence Against Women Partnership in partnership with Rah Rah Community Theatre Company and uses a unique and engaging way to raise awareness of human trafficking. The event comprises:

10:00 Theatre production by Rah Rah Community Theatre Company called “My Mind is free”. The production uses a mixture of imaginative physical theatre and skilful multi–role playing to tell the interlinked stories of four people trafficked to and within the UK and their horrifying tales of abuse, exploitation and enslavement. Nominated for best stage play by the Anti-Trafficking Foundation in 2016 and Amnesty Edinburgh Festival: Freedom of Expression Award 2017. The show will be followed by a short Q&A with the actors and director.

11:30-11:45 Break and refreshments

11:45-12:45 Both Bronagh Andrews from the charity TARA and Detective Chief Inspector Graham Binnie Police Scotland Dundee, will speak about the signs of trafficking and what types of trafficking are taking place locally. This will then be followed by a Q and A with both the speakers.
