Finally gathered the strength to fill it out just now. It took me about an hour (waffles and tea helped) and FPFW guide was a great help.

I really struggle with writing, but managed to give more than just yes and no answers without breaking down in tears of frustration. Feeling quitechuffed with myself now.

I only realised about all this trans stuff, thanks to a thread in aibu. However, even then, I hadn't realised about this consultation.

Thanks to Harrop, I made my way over here, and now have twigged about this consultation. So thank you for bumping this thread. I hope it brings it to the attention of others.

Finished it this morning. Referred to FairPlay and the WPUK advice, both very helpful.
Threw in a certain banker who doesn't even say he is a woman but accepts awards meant for women. There have been a few gems in the news recently to reference, Karen White also got a mention.

I filled it in recently- the FPFW info was v helpful.

PosieRulzOk - fairplayforwomen.com

That link is opening for me and the links to the guide/consultation etc. are on that page. Is it worth trying again?

Newsofas · 30/09/2018 12:34

Thank you will complete it today

ChoccyJules · 30/09/2018 12:31

Thanks, completed.

Fair play link says it's invalid?

It is possible that members of my extended family are sitting down, eating a variety of biscuits and cake, sent to them to help them wade through FPFW's guide to responding to the consultation.
