Forced Marriage

Pauline Bird

A forced marriage is one conducted without the free and full consent of one or both people. Anybody who is being forced into marriage is at risk of significant harm. Forced marriage is never acceptable.

There is often only one chance to prevent a forced marriage from happening.
