This is my mum.
When she was 13 years old she was married to a violent paedophile in Bangladesh.
She is not alone; 10 million child brides a year are sold into marriage. They spend their whole lives being treated inhumanely.
How can you help?
I just try to do what is right and I need your support to make a positive change.

I fully support the ‘Justice For Saira’ Campaign. Child marriages are more common than we realise and it has to be stopped to save these girls from their legal rights to grow up in a safe and secure environment. Please sign the petition and help spread the word of this terrible injustice.
Jo Cameron, a businesswoman and contestant from Alan Sugar’s ‘The Apprentice’ supports our campaign! This is a great testimony from her.

Saira was the victim of a Bangladesh child marriage to a paedophile when she was 13 years old. In allowing this marriage, the Bangladesh government have broken the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The international petition, ‘Justice For Saira’ was created by Saira’s daughter, Sami Ahmed, when she was 19 years old. What started as a small but hopeful cause has now turned into an online petition with 8000 signatures from people all across the globe, and this figure grows every day.
