Jennifer Debrah, of Debrah J Flowers, usually designs floral arrangements for weddings and corporate events but heard about the work of anti-slavery charity City Hearts through her church.
Keen to help, she now plans to regularly donate displays of flowers to the charity’s safe houses in Sheffield, which house and rehabilitate survivors of modern slavery and trafficking.

“I want to help people believe in themselves, regardless of what they've been through, and I've seen the impact flowers can have on people,” she added.
Jennifer, who lives and works in Heeley, hopes her gesture will help uplift the individuals who she believes have ‘been through so much’.
She said: “I've specifically chosen to partner with City Hearts because they deal with modern slavery and I believe in the values of the organisation. I've always wanted to reach out and help but never knew how to, so this is such an incredible opportunity for me.”
