CHILDREN from Kings’ Forest Primary School have raised money to help survivors of slavery and trafficking.
The Year 6 pupils, aged ten and eleven, heard about the issue from staff at Unseen UK, safehouses and support in the community and decided to hold a bake sale, which raised £389.
Headteacher Helen Porter said that the youngsters wanted to raise awareness after studying the topic of Freedom.
“The children want everyone to know that there is a Helpline you can call 08000 121 700,” she said.
“Our curriculum is designed so that children always ‘find a way to succeed’ and at the end of each term every year group is involved in a project which makes a real difference to the lives of others.”
