October 18th marks Anti-Slavery Day in the UK annually. This day serves as an opportunity to heighten awareness about modern slavery, human trafficking, and exploitation.

Enacted in 2010 by the UK Parliament, the Anti-Slavery Day Act established a national day dedicated to promoting awareness and fostering efforts to eliminate slavery, human trafficking, and exploitation. Activities on Anti-Slavery Day engage various governmental, international, and national stakeholders collaborating closely with individuals who have faced exploitation.
