A Wilberforce Institute Public Lecture by Louise Gleich
About this Event

Slavery in our communities by Louise Gleich

We are delighted to host Louise Gleich as part of the Wilberforce Institute's Public Lecture programme, in association with Hull Museums.

In this talk, Louise will explore the evolving nature of modern slavery in the UK, with a particular focus on criminal and labour exploitation. She will consider the wider impact of exploitation on communities and discuss the need for policy change to prevent exploitation and improve the response to perpetrators and survivors.

Louise Gleich is Senior Policy Researcher in the Joint Modern Slavery Policy Unit led by the anti-slavery charity Justice and Care and think tank the Centre for Social Justice.

Louise has worked in anti-slavery policy for a number of charities since 2013 including as a research assistant on human trafficking for Lord McColl of Dulwich supporting him with his private members bills.

Louise has undergraduate and master’s degrees in law and over the past 25 years she has worked with a number of charities in the UK and overseas undertaking a variety of roles before specialising in anti-slavery policy work.

This year we are teaming up with Hull Museums to offer attendees at our public lectures the opportunity to visit Wilberforce House Museum next door before they join us for the lecture. As a result all our lectures will begin at 4.30pm, directly after the Museum closes, and all will take place at our home in Oriel Chambers, 27 High Street, Hull, HU1 1NE. We are very grateful for the financial support Hull Museums is providing to the Wilberforce Institute’s public lecture programme, and hope that some of you will take the opportunity to have a look round their exhibitions and displays in advance of the lectures. Please join us for refreshments from 4.15pm onwards, and if you can, stay afterwards for a glass of wine and a chance to talk with our speaker.

There are a limited number of tickets available to attend in person. If you can’t make it in person, you can still enjoy the lectures by streaming online – please select the ticket according to your preference when you make your booking.
