Our History

We are proud that our heritage is shared with those organisations who have joined together with us: Natalie Grant’s antitrafficking organisation, Abolition International (formerly The Home Foundation); Transitions Global in Cambodia; Retrak in Uganda and Ethiopia, originally founded in the 1990s; Break the Cycle 200 in the USA; Lily Pad Haven in the USA; and No More Traffik in Northern Ireland. All became part of Hope for Justice.

Hope for Justice began in the UK in 2008, when a small group of people passionate about seeing an end to modern slavery took the step from outrage to action. They brought together nearly 6,000 people at an event called The Stand, growing a movement and founding a charity dedicated to helping the victims and survivors of this terrible crime.
