Honour-based abuse

There is no single faith or belief associated with CALFB but it involves situations where children are harmed because adults think their actions have brought bad fortune.

There is no exhaustive list of causes for this abuse but for national guidance on CALFB and a list of possible causes visit DfE’s Child Abuse Linked to faith or belief: national action plan guidance.

For more guidance on signs of this abuse, the law and what to do visit the National FGM Centre’s Child Abuse linked to faith or belief (CALFB) web pages.
