Enfield Council’s Cabinet Member for Health and Social Care, Cllr Alev Cazimoglu, said: “We are asking important questions to our residents on their knowledge of modern slavery in our questionnaire. 

“I would encourage all residents to take five minutes out of their day to provide us with their views.

“We would particularly like to hear from those who work, study or live in the borough, including representatives of organisations from the statutory and voluntary sectors. But it is important that we receive a wide-range of responses and welcome the views of all.”
