Episode Synopsis
Introducing episode 2 of our new short interview series My Epiphany.Episode 2 features Phil Brewer, a retired Police Officer who spent 5 years investigating modern slavery and human trafficking in the Met, now a specialist advisor at the Human Trafficking Foundation and lecturer and honorary research fellow at St Mary’s University.Early in his career with the Met, Phil worked on the case of a man trafficked from Nigeria to the UK when he was 14 into a life of domestic servitude. For 26 years the young man slept on a roll-up mat on the kitchen floor. When he was finally rescued, every possession he owned in the world fit into two plastic bags. It was a case he'll never forget.Every week until December a new film will be released across our social media platforms and The Anti-Slavery Collective website.HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVEDEducate: Modern slavery is happening to people in the UK, in your town, in cities, on farms, and to people your age.
