As part of our outreach work for the Anneli Project at Leeds Women’s Aid, LAST has been approaching local businesses to see if they can help us support trafficked women in Leeds.These women have been prostituted for no personal payment, tortured, and psychologically conditioned to believe that they are only worth as much as the money they generate for their pimps and traffickers. They have now found solace at the Anneli Project and are currently
being counselled and cared for by committed professionals.
However, they have no access to positive cultural experiences which can show them that life
in the UK isn’t all about fear and exploitation.
We managed to secure a year's supply of regular passes to local arts programs including:
- Opera North
- Seven Arts Centre
- Hyde Park Picture House
- The Carriageworks
- Lush - free products
We would like to take this opportunity to thank them all for helping us to make this campaign such a success.
