SWARM have 10 days left to claim match funding on all donations for our hardship fund. We've helped nearly 600 UK s*x workers so far, and with the match fund we can double that. Let's smash the target and get support to the people that need it the most. Tag 5 pals and allies that you think could give £5 to SWARM today. Even better if these can be monthly recurring donations, because this is going to be an ongoing crisis for s*x workers. Your continued support and solidarity are everything! Will you today?

During the current COVID-19 outbreak in the UK, many s*x workers are seeing a dramatic decrease in clients and work. As more and more people will be self-isolating over the coming weeks, it’s going to get worse.

Really sad news from our colleagues in Spain!
Covid-19 and it’s collateral damage continues to affect the s*x work community.
El Paradise (one of Europe’s more well known brothels) expelled 69 s*x workers overnight. Leaving them in a vulnerable situation overnight.
As the crisis depends, it becomes clearer that no recognition of s*x work as work and lack of a legal framework push s*x workers to the margins.
