Nottingham community invited to anti-slavery day coffee morning
The Salvation Army in Aspley is inviting local people to come together for a Coffee Morning on Thursday 16 October, 10am–12pm, marking Anti-Slavery Day with conversation, community, and purpose.
The event aims to raise awareness about modern slavery — how to spot the signs, support survivors, and stand against exploitation, while also raising funds for The Salvation Army’s network of safe houses for survivors.
Visitors will have the chance to enjoy tea, coffee, and home-baked treats while learning more about how The Salvation Army works year-round to protect vulnerable people and support those escaping modern slavery.
Church leader at Aspley Salvation Army, Martyn Jackson, said:
“Modern slavery can happen anywhere, often hidden in plain sight. By joining us for coffee, you’re helping shine a light on this issue and supporting life-changing services for survivors.”
Everyone is welcome to come along, enjoy refreshments, and learn how small actions can make a big difference.
