NOA works towards:
Investigation of the full, international scope of criminality in the Fayed/Harrods case – including sex trafficking.
The abuse of hundreds of young women and girls by Fayed and his associates was enabled by a sophisticated sex trafficking operation. Anti-trafficking laws require police to look beyond individual offenders to investigate wider networks, recruitment chains, financial flows and institutional complicity. Yet the Met will not confirm that it is investigating trafficking at all.
1
Accountability for the failure of public and private institutions to protect women and girls – or hold perpetrators to account.
A statutory public inquiry, with the power to compel testimony, must explain how public and private institutions failed to protect victims – and shielded perpetrators – despite a pattern of exploitation spanning decades. A Government unable to account for the abandonment of the Fayeds’ young victims cannot credibly claim to safeguard young people today.
2
Legal reforms to provide equal access to justice for survivors of powerful perpetrators.
Victims lack real access to justice when powerful perpetrators can buy impunity. Fayed hid organised rape and abuse by gagging the press, corrupting police, forcing NDAs, and settling claims out of court. Today Harrods, implicated in the abuse, controls a private compensation scheme that gives it power over survivors’ evidence. Such technically legal tactics that weaponise the law against victims are incompatible with justice.

Survivors for Survivors
No One Above (NOA) is a survivor-led collective built on integrity, compassion, and accountability. We are survivors of exploitation and trafficking connected to Fayed-controlled organisations including Harrods.
We created NOA to challenge and dismantle the systems of impunity that allow powerful individuals and institutions to evade accountability.
We work to expose and confront the structures that protect perpetrators, while advancing survivor-led advocacy, legal and policy reform. Through informed public engagement and strategic action, we strive to build a future where justice is not determined by power, privilege, or position – because no one is safe when anyone is above the law.

Mission
After years of silence, dismissal, and institutional inaction, our lived experience shapes every aspect of our mission.
Our work is survivor-led, trauma-informed, and grounded in the pursuit of meaningful accountability.
Accountability
Without accountability, justice remains out of reach and cycles of abuse continue unbroken.
Change
Lasting change begins when systems protect rather than conceal.
Empowerment
When survivors lead, real change begins – because empowerment is justice in action.
