FGM stands for Female Genital Mutilation and it is also known as ‘cutting’, ‘female circumcision’ or ‘sunna’ among other terms. The International Day of Zero Tolerance for FGM takes place Feb 6
THE GOVERNMENT’S ‘Let’s Protect Our Girls’ campaign has garnered support from healthcare professionals, FGM campaigners, grassroots organisations, community-based media and people from practising communities who have spoken out against FGM, highlighting the lifelong consequences it can cause women.
The campaign sends a powerful message that communities should protect children from this horrific practice, as it is child abuse and is illegal in the UK.
