Summary
TransLucent briefing notes are produced for MPs and journalists alike, giving basic details of human rights issues facing the trans community, probably the most marginalised, vulnerable and attacked demographic in British society today.
Briefing Notes For MPs and Media
Victims of far-right, “gender-critical” organisations with seemingly unlimited funds (often from evangelical sources), a culture war against the trans community, which started in 2017, see no signs of abating.
The UK trans community consists of approximately 250,000 people, roughly the same size as the Jewish community. Approximately 50,000 people identify as trans women, with a similar number identifying as trans men, the residue often being non-binary.
Many trans people have mental health issues, often because of difficulty in getting a job (one in three employers admit they are sceptical about employing a trans person) and the delay in getting gender-affirming healthcare via the NHS, which on average is around eight years.
