About Us

The work of Freedom from Torture began more than 25 years ago growing out of Amnesty International's Medical Group. Volunteer health professionals (including some of the most senior specialists in the medical profession) campaigned against violations of human rights and documented evidence of torture.

Operating at first from a hut in the yard of the Amnesty International office, the six founding members of Freedom from Torture - then the Medical Foundation for the Care of Victims of Torture – under Helen Bamber's directorship began documenting evidence of torture through provision of consultation for survivors and campaigning against human rights violations. The new organisation was granted charitable status on Christmas Eve 1985 and set out to provide survivors with medical treatment, counselling and therapy and to document evidence of torture.
