International Day of the Girl Child, 11 October

http://www.un.org/en/events/girlchild/ Today is "International Day of the Girl Child" “When we invest in girls’ health, safety, education and rights - in times of peace and crisis - we empower them to reach for their dreams and build better lives for themselves and their communities”. Our specialist advisor, Chloe Chambers, had this to say; Here at Bankfield Heath we understand that many of the world’s 1.1 billion girls do not have the same choices in life that we have. Many young girls throughout the world are forced into child marriage, forced the undergo FGM and other practices that they have no choice in. We specialise in assisting vulnerable young girls at any age and have caseworkers trained to work on cases involving minor children whether it be asylum, trafficking or domestic violence matters and work very closely with refuges across Yorkshire to provide the specialist advice required in these circumstances. Call us now on 0113 249 7781 or email us on enquiries@bankfieldheath.co.uk for more information.
