Exploitation doesn’t always look the way people expect.

As Luke-Matthew Iveson shares, traffickers use fear, debt, and control to make people feel powerless. But with the right support, people can rebuild their lives.

Pride Month at Causeway Is More Than a Celebration 🏳️‍🌈

Our Head of People & Culture shares why a workplace where LGBTQ+ people feel supported matters all year round. When people can be themselves, everything works better for them, for their teams, and for the people we’re here to help.

Festival season’s here. You’re probably thinking about music, mates, maybe what you’re wearing.

We’re thinking about something else too: the 122,000 people in the UK who aren’t free.

This festival season, use your freedom to raise awareness. Visit www.wearecauseway.org.uk on how to help

Rik worked 7 days a week. He earned £4.20 a day. His trafficker kept the rest.

When Rik finally spoke up, everything changed.

He got support. A safe place to recover. And a job where he’s respected and paid.

If something doesn’t feel right, it’s important to trust that instinct. You don’t need to be certain to take action - just informed.

Save it. Share it. Someone in your network might need it.

Up next: how to report your concerns and who to speak to.
