Trans Equality
Our Position Statement on Transgender Equality
We are passionate in our efforts to highlight the lived experiences of trans people and to call for equality in all areas of society which impact our health and wellbeing.
This position statement is for anyone who wishes to understand how LGBT Health and Wellbeing approach equality for transgender people. It has been shaped by the knowledge, understanding and ethos which we have developed, and continue to develop, through engagement with our trans community members and through our personal experiences of living with trans identities.
We intend that this Position Statement speaks to key aspects of our approach and work in relation to trans people; and that it addresses some of the most pressing issues for our trans community. However, we are aware that all of our lives are complex and forever developing and that we may therefore not have addressed everything that deserves our attention. If you are a trans person or trans ally and you wish to contribute to this document, please contact us – contact details are at the end of the document. We are committed to serving and representing our trans community in the best ways we can.
