FGM

The National FGM Centre is a partnership between Barnardo's and the Local Government Association (LGA) to achieve a systems change in the provision of services for children and families affected by Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). Funded by the Department of Education as part of its Children's Social Care Innovation Programme, the Centre works closely with key partners from Local Authorities, Health, Education, Police, and the voluntary sector to achieve its vision and aims. In 2017, the Centre's remit was extended to include Breast Ironing/Flattening and Child Abuse Linked to Faith or Belief... At the National FGM Centre, we pride ourselves on the quality and care of the services we provide to families, young people and professionals.
