This discrete e-platform was created with funding from the Department of Health and NHS England, and aims to provide a virtual forum of support where relevant resources can be accessed, including links to appropriate data on FGM. The e-network also acts as a confidential platform for discussion of issues or specific problems, and for sharing information and best practice in a safe space.
FGM Reconstruction Surgery
A new project is underway, ACERS-UK, the end goal of which is to establish a National Centre of Excellence providing FGM reconstruction surgery with psychosexual therapy as a treatment option for FGM survivors. We believe funding research into surgical reconstruction and psychosexual services is essential to address the unmet need of survivors of female genital mutilation (FGM).
