Yet it has been harder to help women connect with other services to move their situations forward – such as substance abuse help, or local housing support - so we have been acting as a ‘holding bay’ whilst face–to–face support is not available. 2/5
For some women connecting with our phone service, lockdown has brought an opportunity to stop selling sex where they had felt trapped before. 3/5
If they were already on a journey out of the sex industry it has given much needed space and chance to move away quicker, so our support has focused on helping these women move forwards into a new future. 4/5
We can't do this alone - our supporters have been instrumental at this time, in so many ways, and we are very grateful. 5/5
