Beyond The Streets

Who we are

Our Vision & Mission

OUR VISION is of a society where everyone is able to live safe and independent lives, free from the structural inequalities and societal norms that compel women into selling sex.

OUR MISSION is to raise awareness of the sex industry and survival sex, challenge the societal norms that perpetuate harm, and transform responses by providing direct support, shaping policy, and equipping others to take action.

To achieve this vision, we work in two areas:

Working with women – providing person-centred and trauma informed support directly for women in east London and across the UK.

Increasing impact – through training, research, resources,  collaboration and shared learning, rooted in lived experience. 

Our culture and values

Our Values

We know that partnering and journeying with women is the most effective approach and this is the practice model we use today. Women need to be respected and empowered to identify their own needs and devise their own strategies. 

Our Christian values determine how we treat others: with respect, dignity, love and a non-judgemental attitude. As a charity we are seeking to enable those exploited by prostitution to find routes out, and look to work with those of all faiths or none to achieve this.
