The 2018 Global Slavery Index estimated there were 136,000 victims of modern slavery and human trafficking in UK, and in its 2019 Annual Report on Modern Slavery the UK Government acknowledged that the scale of modern slavery in the UK is increasing. Across the UK, survivors are currently entitled to receive 45-90 days of support via the National Referral Mechanism (NRM), the government-funded system which provides access to specialist support, with support varying between regions and greater flexibility in the duration of support in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Yet in 2018, only 6,993 potential victims were referred to the NRM (including children). Of those, little is known about what happens to the majority of survivors after they reach the 'cliff edge' of support at the end of their time in the NRM, but there is some evidence that survivors are experiencing homelessness and destitution, and are at risk of further exploitation (Nicholson et al, 2019). Even less is known about the outcomes and support interactions of those who decline to enter the NRM, or who exit prematurely. The ongoing journeys and outcomes for these individuals are not routinely monitored by most support organisations or by governmental authorities. Data is not collected on the numbers of suspected victims of modern slavery who choose not to enter the NRM or who exit NRM services prematurely, or their reasons for doing so. Our project will address this knowledge gap. Building on the work previously developed by research team members on place-based responses to exploitation (Birks and Gardner, 2019), and survivor support (Nicholson et al, 2019; Mead, Jordan & Nicholson, 2018; Toft, Nicholson & Cuypers, 2017; Trautrims, Nicholson & Boulghassoul, 2016; Murphy, 2018) this project seeks to gather rich data and provide analysis that delivers original theoretical insights and understandings of survivor support practice. We will be working with survivors to record and share their experiences of recovery and of their encounters with state and third sector services, and we have third sector commitment to facilitate interviews with survivors across the UK to reveal their non-NRM support journeys. We will focus on three distinct cohorts: 1) Potential victims who have chosen not to enter the NRM; 2) those who have consented to enter the NRM but exit NRM support services prematurely; and 3) those who have exited NRM services following the completion of the NRM support period. Via these interviews, and through an additional structured online questionnaire, we will draw out key messages and solutions from survivors' themselves, building an evidence base that will enable the effective development of existing models of front-line service provision. Our research will show what changes are necessary to enable survivors to recover more quickly, and provide them with the stability to co-operate in bringing their exploiters to justice, increase engagement with the NRM, and achieve sustained liberation. Outputs will include: A website which will hold rich new empirical data which can be explored with visual tools; survivor-informed recommendations for local and national policy-makers on service interventions that can help to promote sustainable recovery and reintegration; a closing conference to reach key stakeholders and capitalise on momentum for change; and academic publications on our findings.

2018年全球奴隶制指数估计，英国有136，000名现代奴隶制和人口贩运的受害者，英国政府在其2019年现代奴隶制年度报告中承认，英国现代奴隶制的规模正在增加。在整个联合王国，幸存者目前有权通过国家转介机制获得45-90天的支助，国家转介机制是政府资助的系统，提供专家支助，各地区的支助不同，苏格兰和北方爱尔兰的支助期限更灵活。然而，在2018年，只有6，993名潜在受害者被转介到NRM（包括儿童）。其中，很少有人知道大多数幸存者在NRM结束时到达支持的“悬崖边缘”后会发生什么，但有一些证据表明幸存者正在经历无家可归和贫困，并面临进一步剥削的风险（尼科尔森等人，2019）。更少的是知道的结果和支持的互动那些拒绝进入NRM，或过早退出。大多数支助组织或政府当局并不对这些人正在进行的旅程和结果进行例行监测。没有收集关于选择不进入国家转介机制或过早退出国家转介机制服务的现代奴隶制疑似受害者人数或其退出原因的数据。我们的项目将解决这一知识差距。在研究小组成员先前就基于地点的剥削对策开展的工作的基础上（伯克斯和加德纳，2019年），和幸存者的支持（Nicholson et al，2019; Mead，Jordan & Nicholson，2018; Toft，Nicholson & Cuypers，2017; Trautrims，Nicholson & Boulghassoul，2016;墨菲，2018）该项目旨在收集丰富的数据，并提供分析，提供原始的理论见解和对幸存者支持实践的理解。我们将与幸存者合作，记录和分享他们的康复经历以及他们与国家和第三部门服务的接触，我们有第三部门的承诺，以促进与英国各地幸存者的访谈，以揭示他们的非NRM支持旅程。我们将重点关注三个不同的群体：1）选择不进入NRM的潜在受害者; 2）同意进入NRM但过早退出NRM支持服务的人;以及3）在NRM支持期结束后退出NRM服务的人。通过这些访谈，并通过一个额外的结构化在线问卷，我们将从幸存者自己那里获得关键信息和解决方案，建立一个证据库，使现有的一线服务提供模式能够得到有效发展。我们的研究将表明，需要做出哪些改变，才能使幸存者更快地恢复，并为他们提供稳定的合作，将剥削者绳之以法，增加与NRM的接触，并实现持续的解放。产出将包括：一个网站，将拥有丰富的新的经验数据，可以探索与视觉工具;幸存者知情的建议，为地方和国家的政策制定者服务干预措施，可以帮助促进可持续的恢复和重返社会;闭幕会议，以达到关键利益相关者和利用变化的势头;和学术出版物，我们的研究结果。
