TESTIMONIES…
"FGM is a strong cultural belief that it takes specific approaches to change mentalities, the SOS health and wellbeing activities have been actually engaging women and young girls from FGM practising communities to help empower and educate them so that they become future Community Ambassadors as well."

“This project has impacted my life so much in so many ways over these last two years. The SOS Project has developed a platform for young girls and women who have suffered from female genital mutilation providing a transcultural therapeutic service to women who have undergone FGM and to those who might be at risk. It also engages them in a variety of health and wellbeing activities and empowers them to become Community Ambassadors working to end FGM in Greater Manchester."
