    Story

    Please help me escape Female Genital Mutilation and Forced Marriage.

    I am Fatou from The Gambia. My father is insisting on Female Genital Mutilation then forcing me to marry. This would happen if I am deported which could happen at anytime if I cannot raise the money to challenge the Home Office. My claim for asylum to escape this violent abuse has been refused.

    This terrible mutilation still continues even though now illegal in The Gambia.

    I need to secure an internationally recognized Expert whose report will show why I remain at risk.

    My only option to avoid deportation is to apply for a judicial review and make further representations, which scarily will cost at least £4000.

    Success for me will also be success for all those resisting Female Genital Mutilation and Forced Marriage because it will create a precedent that others can use to defend against this inhumane violence against women.

    Let's use my strong case to help other women and girls.

    I desperately need your help. Please contribute, comment and share this page across different platforms.

    Thank You
