Rejected petition Stop the proposed Conservative ban of Trans women from female NHS wards

We want Parliament/the Government to rethink their proposed plan which sees Trans women being banned from female NHS wards and being forced to get care in a ward which does align with their gender.

More details

This ban is outdated and highly discriminatory towards Trans Women. The 2021 NHS guidance that said trans patients could be placed on single-sex wards on the basis of the gender with which they identified should be up held.
