FGM can be ended in a generation. If we want this Freedom needs funding. Freedom Charity to date has seen over 50,000 young people.

This is where young boys around the country ‘stand up’ to show that they wish to protect their sister’s female cousins and be the generation to see this practice eradicated forever.
