Seven Northamptonshire girls needlessly examined at centre for rape victims, 'due to lack of FGM training' Northamptonshire girls are being put through intimate examinations at sex assault referral centres when a simple conversation with their parents about genital mutilation would suffice.
That is the opinion of Spring Boroughs-based group Somali Women and Girls, along with race and gender equality charity Creating Equalz. They say local NHS staff and schools do not know the signs of FGM and refer girls far too easily based on cultural assumptions, causing distress to families. Northampton Chronicle and Echo
