Rejected petition Increasing funding for the Sandyford in Glasgow

Rejected on

Lack of funding for the Gender Identity Clinic, the Sandyford has caused waiting list times to spiral out of control- with people waiting at least 9 months for an appointment- and is still increasing drastically. There needs to be more funding to train more psychiatrists and councilors.
