Modern slavery is a global crime with devastating local consequences - causing serious harm to some of the most vulnerable individuals in our communities. It affects not only individuals but also businesses, supply chains, and reputations. Tackling this complex and often hidden issue requires a coordinated, multi-agency response with active engagement.
This free event - hosted by the Pan-Lancashire Anti-Slavery Partnership, Lancashire Constabulary, the Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire, and the Lancashire Partnership Against Crime - invites professionals from public services, businesses, and community organisations to come together to strengthen collaboration, deepen understanding of legal responsibilities, and develop a unified approach to preventing slavery and exploitation across Lancashire.
Through interactive, scenario-based roundtable exercises, participants will explore real-world challenges, share insights, and identify practical solutions. Expect engaging dialogue, peer learning, and actionable takeaways that can be directly applied within your organisation - whether you're managing teams, overseeing procurement, or working directly with the public.
The event offers a safe and inclusive space to learn, network, and exchange ideas. Attendees will receive a certificate of participation, along with complimentary refreshments and a light lunch.
We look forward to welcoming partners from across Lancashire - including business leaders, frontline professionals, and community advocates - to be part of this vital conversation.
