National FGM Support Clinics
National FGM Support Clinics

National FGM Support Clinics (NFGMSCs) are community-based clinics that offer a range of support services for women with female genital mutilation (FGM).

The service is free to access for anyone who's eligible for NHS care.

If you're under 18

Support for FGM is available through the specialist paediatric service at University College London Hospitals (UCLH).

You can email UCLH for an appointment at UCLH.paediatricsafeguarding@nhs.net.

How the clinics can help

National FGM Support Clinics are a place for women with FGM to discuss their health needs in a sensitive and non-judgmental environment.

The services are provided by an all-female team and include:

  • physical assessment and treatment (including deinfibulation if required)
  • emotional support and counselling
  • general information
  • access to FGM Health Advocates
  • referral to a specialist consultant, if needed
How to access a clinic

National FGM Support Clinics run either weekly or every 2 weeks.

Referrals from GPs and other health professionals are strongly encouraged, but you can also access a clinic through:

  • walk-in appointments
  • using a self-referral service
