Trans people in the UK face a rising tide of discriminatory behaviour and prejudice which is creating a "hostile environment" impeding access to healthcare and damaging mental health, according to a major new report.
Describing the situation as a "crisis", in which trans people in the UK are "being catastrophically failed", Trans Actual UK, an advocacy organisation focused on healthcare and legal protections for trans people, said: "Hundreds of thousands of trans people have seen the degradation of their human rights protections" over the past decade, and are now calling for government action.
