In light of the temporary closure of Mermaids' helpline and webchat services, you can find a list of alternative help and resources for trans & non-binary people here:

The Government announced they will commit to a ban of 'conversion therapy' but not for trans people.
This is totally unacceptable and an act of transphobic violence.
