Since the age of 17, when she visited Africa for the first time, Sarah has dedicated her life to serving the poor and suffering. From the slums of India to the orphanages of Romania, a rubbish dump in Quito Ecuador, to a clinic in Zambia, and many other places in between, Sarah has learned life’s richest lessons from some of the world’s poorest people. Since 2010, she has focused on combatting modern slavery, and has worked in a safe house for survivors of human trafficking in Spain. As Founder and Director of Unchained, Sarah is now training and equipping businesses in Australia to be leaders in addressing modern slavery in their supply chains and operations. Sarah was Young Australian of the Year (NSW, 2004) and has received several other awards for her humanitarian work.
