Rejected petition Increase funding for the NHS Gender Clinic to make it more widely accessible

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.

More details

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.
