The Poppy Project was set up in 2003 to provide accommodation and support to women who have been trafficked into prostitution or domestic servitude. The Poppy Outreach Service works to improve the safety and wellbeing of women from all over the UK who have been trafficked and who are in need of short-term support and advocacy. The Eaves project provides refuges across London for women (and their children) leaving domestic violence.
Every year thousands of women are trafficked globally for sexual exploitation. Sex trafficking is worth $12 billion a year to the criminals who trade in women's misery.
Poppy recently helped Katya*, a Moldovan woman who was kidnapped by traffickers when she was 14, repeatedly sold on to pimps and other traffickers, and forced to work as a prostitute for seven years in Italy, Turkey, Hungary, Romania, Israel and the UK.
We are sad to learn that The Poppy Project has lost it's government funding, however, we believe that its work should continue and hope you will help us to support the Poppy Project.
All money raised will go directly to the Poppy Project. http://www.justgiving.com/simonandmillie
