Increase funding for the NHS Gender Clinic to make it more widely accessible
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
I would like to see an increase in funding for the NHS's gender clinics, and make gender clinics more widely available across the country.
The NHS gender clinic is currently incredibly underfunded and has waiting lists of years just for an appointment. Non-cisgender people are missing out on treatment and threapy that could be life saving - the suicide rate for transgender people is still incredibly high, largely due to the difficulty of accesing care.
Why it was rejected
There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.
You may wish to sign this petition calling for the same action: Increase funding for NHS Transgender Services.
