Since 1985 Freedom from Torture has been the only UK human rights organization dedicated to treating and supporting torture survivors who seek refuge in the UK. We do this primarily through psychological therapies but also services which document torture forensically, practical legal and welfare support and creative groups.

Thanks to the dedication of our staff and volunteers - as well as scores of passionate supporters and funders - thousands of torture survivors have been able to rebuild their lives in incredibly difficult circumstances.
