Woman trafficked out of UK and sexually exploited now inspires others

A woman who was trafficked out of the UK and sexually exploited has now inspired an exhibition to highlight the plight of modern day slavery victims.

Liverpool International Slavery Museum (ISM) has launched the Freedom Quilt exhibition, which aims to bring to light the struggles of an estimated 50 million victims, worldwide, of modern day slavery,

The exhibition runs from Friday, October 14 until March 31, 2023 in the ISM in the Royal Albert Dock. A quilt hand-stitched by 60 women survivors of slavery from across the UK, consists of 247 squares created using iconic fabrics supplied by Liberty to form three distinctive regional quilts from London, Birmingham and Manchester.
