Training
ATLEU is the only UK charity providing a dedicated and holistic legal advice service to survivors of trafficking and slavery.
We support over 250 individual survivors with direct legal support each year and through our advice line service for professionals, we provide advice to hundreds of different third parties who work with survivors, including local authorities, support workers, police officers and lawyers.
We draw on this experience to ensure that our training is practical, relevant and up-to-date.
We offer a range of bespoke training sessions to organisations working with survivors. For more information and pricing, email training@atleu.org.uk
