Recognising the Impact of the Supreme Court Ruling on Transgender Mental Health
It is vital that we do everything possible to promote safety, dignity, and respect across society. As a mental health charity, we recognise that the recent Supreme Court ruling will be deeply felt by many in the transgender community, who are often excluded from discussions about their own lives.
Transgender people too often experience stigma, discrimination, and violence in their day-to-day lives, which significantly impacts on mental health and emotional wellbeing.
We urge decision-makers across government and public services to take the needs of transgender people into account and to actively consult them when creating policies and legislation.
