UK making great strides to protect girls from FGM but more needs to be done, say experts
The UK has made great strides in eradicating the risk of female genital mutilation (FGM) being carried out on girls living in this country, experts said on Tuesday.
They said great progress had been made to change cultural perceptions towards the procedure, but more work was needed to help survivors.
Brendan Ostrowski Wynne, the co-founder of the charity The Five Foundation, believes the risk for children born here is now “close to zero”.
