Medaille Trust is pleased to announce that we are joining the national Independent Modern Slavery Advocate (IMSA) pilot. As our Deputy CEO Ben Ryan said: "We have seen from our own work alongside survivors the incredible value that sustained long-term support can have in the recovery process. We are looking forwards to working with other organizations to embed best practice and develop new approaches.”
IMSA is an independent role designed to give survivors a dedicated advocate who can help them navigate complex systems, understand their rights, and access the support they need. The pilot aims to strengthen safeguarding, reduce risk, and improve outcomes for those who have experienced exploitation.
We look forward to contributing our expertise and ensuring survivor voices remain at the heart of this work.
