The Real Mo Farah

2022

The Real Mo Farah tells the astonishing story of how the British-Somali athlete was trafficked to the UK as the age of nine.

In the UK, Mo Farah worked as a domestic servant. After telling his PE teacher about his plight, he went into foster care. School staff helped the boy gain British citizenship so that he could compete in international running events.

Mo Farah has won 4 Olympic gold medals. He received an Order of the British Empire, a CBE in 2013 and another, a knighthood, in 2017.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group.
