About Tribe Freedom Foundation

Tribe Freedom Foundation is a UK-registered charity established in 2017 by Guy Hacking, Tom Stancliffe, and Rob Martineau. It was born from a 1,000-mile Run for Love challenge to combat human trafficking and create the UK's first home for trafficked children. Its mission is to end modern slavery by empowering survivors through holistic, long-term support, fostering systemic change via collaboration, public awareness, and innovative partnerships. The Foundation is community-driven, rallying athletes and adventurers for fundraising, and partners with TRIBE Nutrition, which donates product sale proceeds. This blend of adventure fundraising and survivor-centred philanthropy sets it apart in the anti-slavery sector.

What Tribe Freedom Foundation funds

The Foundation funds targeted projects addressing modern slavery and human trafficking UK-wide. Priorities include survivor financial literacy, therapeutic, legal, and practical aid, awareness-raising, and capacity-building for frontline organisations. It supports direct services, scalable pilots, and systems-change efforts. The Foundation also leads initiatives such as the Survivor Financial Empowerment Hub and the Foodies Fighting Slavery SME Toolkit. Work is supported across the whole of the UK, with no regional restrictions.
