Abstract
NHS clinicians have a key role in the identification, referral and care of people trafficked in the UK. However, little is
known about clinicians’ response to trafficking or their training needs in this area. In addition the views and experiences of
trafficked individuals who accessed NHS services or which NHS services they were likely to access were unknown. We aimed to provide evidence to inform the NHS response to human trafficking, specifically the identification and safe referral of
trafficked people and provision of appropriate care to meet their health needs. Data relevant to maternity are presented.
