Help for NHS staff to spot and support trafficking victims

Published: 02 May 2013

More victims of human trafficking will be identified and offered better support thanks to new training and advice launched by Public Health Minister Anna Soubry. The new tools are designed to make it easier for NHS staff to spot and give help to people who have been illegally trafficked and is available to healthcare workers across the country.

The toolkit has two elements, a guidance leaflet and an e-learning module.  Those within the NHS will be able to gain access and accreditation through their NHS login.  However the module is also available as an open access module so anyone can complete it, although this will not be accredited. 

• Download the guidance leaflet from the Government website.  
• Access the e-learning module.
