@NSFTtweets Thank you. This should not have taken 2 1/2 years to correct. We look forward to hearing the @NSFTtweets Board answers to our other questions at or before the Board meeting on the 6 April.
@NSFTtweets Single sex wards are an issue of safety for women and girls.

#SexMatters #SafeguardingFail
@NSFTtweets Amending the website is a first step, that acknowledges the problem.

Now the work starts.

Question 2: What steps will the @NSFTtweets Board take to correct the 2022 #Equality, #Diversity and #Inclusion Strategy & all trust communications and policies?
@NSFTtweets The @NSFTtweets Board must ensure the EIAs assess the impact of decisions on sex (not gender) and pregnancy and maternity.
@NSFTtweets Our members and the women of @norwich_s @WRNNorfolkNW and @EASuffragettes want to know what action is being taken on sexual violence prevention policies, accommodation and patient records policies to address harassment & violence against women and girls.
@NSFTtweets @norwich_s @WRNNorfolkNW @EASuffragettes Our 5th question for @NSFTtweets Board - Data - if data is compromised by collection by gender not sex, this needs action.
@NSFTtweets @norwich_s @WRNNorfolkNW @EASuffragettes . @NSFTtweets must comply with the #Equality Act, PSED & the protected characteristics in policies, assessments & data analysis.

Q6 for the Board:

#Stonewall is antithetical to equality. It's time to respect the rights of women in Norfolk & Suffolk.

Hey, @SportsparkUEA yr swimming pool reopens on Weds. You & UEA still haven't sent our members the policies they asked for a month ago. #FOIA

Have you found the courage to face up to the fact that letting naked men into female changing spaces discriminates against women & girls?
You said to @EDP24 that you "do not allow men to use the female changing rooms" and a "spokesman confirmed the centre does not allow men in women's changing spaces and vice versa."

But that's not true, is it, @SportsparkUEA? https://www.edp24.co.uk/new...
Since you rec'd complaints about men in female spaces, you snuck in a change of words. What on earth are "gendered" changing facilities, @SportsparkUEA?

Clear plain language is required. It's an issue of #safeguarding with 12 yr old girls changing without parental supervision. 18. Changing areas are made...

Dear NSFT,

We appreciate your apology but you have failed to understand why "people" is not inclusive nor acceptable when talking about maternity services.

We guess you know this is an issue because you have BANNED replies to your tweet & FAIL to talk about mothers & mums. >> Image
Do you think deleting the word "birthing" is enough?

Failing to talk about mums, mothers and maternal services excludes women who may have English as a second language or with special needs, and distresses some mums. It is dangerous.

You are doubling down - and not listening. Image
You have a duty to all 9 protected characteristics.

By following #Stonewall advice to erase the words, woman, mums and maternity from your patient outreach, you are failing women in 3 protected characteristics, sex, race and disability.

@NSFTtweets - joining Stonewall has scrambled your brains.

Only women give birth.

By calling mothers "birthing people," you discriminate against women with special needs and women with English as a second language.

It is also disrespectful, dehumanising and offensive to women.
Erasure of the word “woman” is part of
a political & cultural movement delegitimising clarity about sex.

Sex matters for safety & dignity in healthcare for recording accurate information, obtaining consent for examinations & providing single-sex facilities & accommodation.
Avoiding the word woman when referring to maternity mental health and female biology, and instead using “pregnant people” is your participation in that highly contested political movement, @NSFTtweets, and is discriminatory.
