NHS to close England's only dedicated gender identity clinic for children and young people
The NHS is to close England's only dedicated gender identity clinic for children and young people.
Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust has been told to close its gender clinic by spring after it was criticised in an independent review. New regional centres will be set up to "ensure the holistic needs" of children are fully considered, the NHS said.It was rated as "inadequate" by inspectors who visited in late 2020, after concerns were raised by whistleblowers andThe new centres - one based in London and the other in the North West - will be run in conjunction with leading children's hospitals, including Great Ormond Street and Alder Hey.
They will help support young people under the age of 18 who are struggling with their gender identity.
