We operate the only specialist and secure 24 hour and seven day a week helpline in the country. The UK based helpline is staffed by trained professional to help victims of all dishonour abuse and their friends who are seeking help, advice and support.
Use it to contact us if you are concerned about abuse that you know or suspect is being planned. We are always here to help, whatever time of day or night.
My family told me it was normal. A rite of passage. When I was eight my parents took me abroad and had me cut, it was the most painful thing in the world. When I was at secondary school Freedom Charity came and gave a talk on Female Genital Mutilation.
With Freedom’s support Grace was able to ensure the safety of her younger sisters so that they did not suffer the same fate. With your help we can end Female Genital Mutilation in our lifetime.
I was only 14 when my parents tried to send me away to be forced into a marriage. I was terrified; I didn’t want to leave my life in England, my friends, my family. Why did they want me to marry a man I’d never met? It didn’t make any sense, I felt scared and alone.
Freedom Charity rescued Zara who would have been subjected to daily rape and abuse.
Please support Freedom by purchasing our books or a red triangle badge. All profits go towards helping support our cause.
