Hostage UK has experience of working with a wide range of organisations, including multinational corporations, charities and non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and government agencies.
If your organisation has had an employee kidnapped or is working in a kidnap hotspot, Hostage UK can offer a range of support and advice to you, both before, during and after the case. For more information either call our 24/7 local rate helpline on 0845 608 1360 or contact us on email.
Hostage UK's core area of work is pastoral support for families and others effected by a kidnapping. We want to help organisations to understand their responsibilities to the hostage, their families, and colleagues back in the office. We run regular specialist events on handling the human and family aspects of kidnapping to allow experts and organisations to share good practice. On this part of our website, we provide general information that may be useful to a wide range of organisations.
Hostage UK has produced two guides for families - one of how to cope during and after a kidnap, and another specifically on how to handle the media during and after a kidnap.
