Stop the Traffik

Had a great session last night with the young people at St John's planning a Stop the Traffik service that will happen on Sunday 9th September.

Stop the Traffik, is a global coalition of organisations working together to fight against people trafficking; by raising awareness on a subject that is little known or understood Stop the Traffik will call for change and freedom. There are currently over 800 organisations, including businesses, faith groups, community groups and charities.

Through advocacy and education, Stop the Traffik will demonstrate to the public ways in which they can get involved and help change peoples futures. At the heart of the campaign is the Global Declaration Card, thousands of cards signed worldwide will be delivered to the United Nations; these aim to pressurise the U.N and individual governments to bring about a change in legislation and policies, resulting in protection from people trafficking.

More information, resources and a chance to sign the declaration are all available at the Stop the Traffik website.
