The Hertfordshire Modern Slavery Partnership brings together more than 60 statutory and non-statutory partners from across the county to tackle human trafficking and modern slavery in all its forms.
This multi-agency group is made up of representatives from Hertfordshire County Council, the Police and Crime Commissioner’s Office for Hertfordshire, Shiva Foundation, Hertfordshire Constabulary, District & Borough Councils, NHS Trusts, charities, government agencies and more.
It was established to provide a strategic meeting framework for Hertfordshire to raise awareness, share information and proactively work together to ensure a consistent and robust approach to tackling modern slavery; utilising this shared strategy and resulting action plans to achieve a set of shared aims and objectives.
Partnership aims are achieved through the voluntary commitment of member agencies to work together effectively in support of an agreed vision and strategic approach. The partnership’s work is overseen by the Police & Crime Commissioner’s Community Safety Board (CSB).
