SWARM is a sex worker led collective based in the UK. The project was founded in 2009 (under our former name Sex Worker Open University) to advocate for the rights of everyone who sells sexual services. Our goal is to build a diverse and inclusive community of sex workers who work together to improve our working conditions and resist violence.

We’re proud to support @DaaroYouth in this important letter on the deaths of young asylum seekers, highlighting the issues contributing to these deaths, and the lack of oversight and scrutiny on (at least) 11 people’s lives and deaths. #11toomany https://twitter.com/DaaroYouth/status/1417083181950509056
At least 11 unaccompanied teenage boys, from Eritrea, Ethiopia and Afghanistan, have taken their own lives after arriving in the UK. We have written to Nadine Dorries, Minister for suicide prevention, along with 46 other organisations, demanding an inquiry. #11TooMany
