Equality in sports to have a separate category for transgender athletes.
For transgender athletes who compete on an elite or championship level, and non competitive athletes to have their own category who are able to take part in a same sex competition.
It has been brought to my attention recently as I was subjected to hate comments on social media in the 2023 London Marathon and all sporting organisations have no category for transgender athletes. It is very one sided for same sex athletes.
The LGBTQ + community is looked upon as second class citizens when it comes to sports. I feel that there is no equality.

Deciding who should be eligible to take part in individual sporting events are a matter for the organisers, not the UK Government or Parliament."
