We’re campaigning for healthCARE that delivers for all trans people:
Collaborative – supporting informed consent and person-centred care.
Accessible – fully including diverse trans people all across Scotland.
Resourced – funding that achieves NHS waiting time standards.
Equal – ending healthcare discrimination against trans people.
