What the petition asks

In July 2013 I saw a doctor to get a referral to gender clinic about my gender dysphoria because I was struggling with feeling uncomfortable being in the wrong gender in the society the doctor said the referral will be sent off in 2 weeks but 2 months later my sociologist tried to chase it up
but found out that their forgot to do the paper work 1 year half later I chased up my appointment for my 2nd opinion for top surgery in Daventry hospital in February I received a letter from my GIC to confirm that the referral been submitted in April I called up Daventry the person from the reception said that haven't received a referral from GIC I was annoyed. I want to make them realise that we as transgender people deserve the best care we need in order to live a better life
