Change the NHS guidelines asking people their sexual orientation

Closed 48 signatures

What the petition asks

In April of 2019 the NHS guidelines will be changed requiring nurses and doctors etc to ask people their sexual orientation no matter what their appointment is about.

This is wrong as it is personal information and should only be needed if required. Please don’t let this happen.
