Government-funded scheme links sponsors with refugees, but some groups fear misuse by traffickers
The first UK government-funded scheme linking sponsors with Ukrainian refugees has been launched amid warnings that initiatives aimed at helping people to secure sanctuary in Britain risk becoming “Tinder for sex traffickers”.
The charity Reset Communities and Refugees, which has led UK community sponsorship schemes since 2018, has launched a service to pair sponsors and refugees, provide training and assist with safeguarding.
