BIG thanks to all of those who are currently attending the Demand Change film screening and debate, I had the day of the rally wrong- it is in fact tomorrow and I hope that LOTS of you are able to come along to show your support and lend your voices...
The Demand Change! campaign is lobbying for Peers to support Clause 14 (formerly 13) of the Policing and crime Bill to criminalise the purchase of sexual services from an individual who has been exploited.
This is a crucial first step towards tackling the demand for prostitution and trafficking for sexual exploitation and timing is critical as the House of Lords decides on Nov 3rd whether or not to support these proposals.
Its still not too late to write to peers as urgent action...
Info on how to do this....
