They captioned the post: “Introducing episode 2 of our new short interview series My Epiphany.
“Episode 2 features Phil Brewer, a retired Police Officer who spent 5 years investigating modern slavery and human trafficking in the Met, now a specialist advisor at the Human Trafficking Foundation and lecturer and honorary research fellow at St Mary’s University.
“Early in his career with the Met, Phil worked on the case of a man trafficked from Nigeria to the UK when he was 14 into a life of domestic servitude.
“For 26 years the young man slept on a roll-up mat on the kitchen floor.
“When he was finally rescued, every possession he owned in the world fit into two plastic bags.
“It was a case he’ll never forget.”
They added: “Every week until December a new film will be released across our social media platforms and The Anti-Slavery Collective website.”
Princess Eugenie shared the short video on her Instagram story.
