A candle has been lit by Lumiere in remembrance of all slaves at this Christmas time. Nearly 36 million people worldwide live in slavery, according to survey by anti-slavery campaign group Walk Free. The report defines people subjected to forced labour, debt bondage, trafficking, sexual exploitation
for money and forced or servile marriage as slaves.
No one should be enslaved; all should be free.
In the spirit of Lumiere,
is there anything you can do to help?
