The Cass Review recommendations have finally been published by @NHSEngland and it’s as dire as you might imagine! 😣
👉🏻
Some highlights…
The NHS says GPs CAN NOT now refer to the youth gender service. Instead going via CAMHS for “assessment” first! 😣 england.nhs.uk/commissioning/…

Once reaching 17 yrs 9m old, any young person not seen by the youth gender service will be dismissed back to their GP to be referred to the GIC (despite the GP not being considered qualified enough to refer them in the first place) 🤷🏼♀️
But don’t worry… the NHS are developing a “pass through” service (for trans ADULTS age 18-25) - presumably designed to STOP them passing through transition by further gatekeeping at the insistence of their ‘gender critical’ transonic parents/ clinicians? 🤔
In more positive news, the NHS acknowledges that trans kids do actually exist and fall under the EA2010 protected characteristic of ‘gender reassignment’… Although they (incorrectly) believe this is based on a “case specific factual assessment”… performed by who? A GP? 🤷🏼♀️
And none of this is politically motivated at all!
Nuh-huh.
Coz we looked at ourselves and decided we are totally unbiased. 🙄

P.S. This is the UK CAMHS service that @NHSEngland wants to refer trans kids to for “assessment” before they can even get referred on to the youth gender service (which currently can’t recruit enough staff!) 😣
It’s delayed support by design! 😞
