Right to choose: Spotting the signs of forced marriage

Summer holidays are the peak time for young people to be taken overseas and forced into marriage. In some cases they are taken on what they have been told is a holiday to visit family abroad, but in fact a marriage has been planned. Once abroad, victims are often even more isolated than they might have been in the UK and getting help is more difficult.

Remind young people to speak up if they think they or someone they are close to are in danger.
