A cohort of investors led by CCLA, the UK investment manager which oversees more than £12bn on behalf of charities and religious organisations, plans to extend an initiative to combat modern slavery to the construction and materials sector — more than a year after urging hospitality firms to tackle the issue across their supply chains.

Launched by CCLA in 2019, the Find It, Fix It, Prevent It campaign aims to increase the effectiveness of corporate action against modern slavery, which can include forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking.
