Increase the availability of Gender Identity Clinics to under 17s

Petition Details

Transgender teenagers in the UK currently do not have access to Gender Identity Clinics. This is dangerous, unnecessary and causing transgender teens to commit suicide. We push the government to allow transgender teens to be allowed access to the Gender Identity Clinics

Additional Information

Not only this, currently, the GICs in the NHS are severely underfunded. Many people start identifying as transgender whilst they are adolescent and require things like HRT and speech therapy to help with things like Gender Dysphoria. It is imperative to increase access to these clinics for young people.
