My name is Tanya Squire and I'm a singer/songwriter from Barnstaple in North Devon. For about a year now I have felt a burden for victims of sex trafficking around the world and I wanted to write a song with the aim to raise money for the cause. I had already written part of a song as a result of turblent circumstances in my own life, after the death of my ex-husband due to a drug overdose, which left my two children without a dad. After gaining the enthuiasm of children from different parts of North Devon and some friends of mine to sing with me, and with weeks of rehearsals and the help of some very tallented musicians, we recorded 'Free To Run'.

I'm trying to raise awareness of the tragic circumstances surrounding sex trafficking around the globe. This new age slavery and other types of forced labour, holds around 27 000 000 people captive all over the world, with over 1000 000 children exploited by the global commercial sex trade every year.
