Story
I am taking to the streets of Hackney this May to raise awareness of & funds for Freedom from Torture. It's a fantastic charity that provides counselling, community and other support to survivors of torture.
Yogi’s story describes powerfully how FfT helps give survivors their voice back and put them on the road to recovery.
I met Yogi when he had already set up his own food business. But that was the end of a long journey: escaping persecution and torture in Sri Lanka, homeless in London, and suffering with mental health issues – connecting with Freedom from Torture helped secure Yogi a home, job training, and further support. He now runs a successful restaurant – Trampoline – in Islington serving up amazing Sri Lankan food; go and visit!
Help FfT to support more people like Yogi to turn their lives around!
