SEENinHealth Interactive Map of (unlawful) NHS single sex and trans self ID policies for whole of UK - check out your Trust and find template letters to call for the return of lawfulness to the NHS!

Very proud to announce that SEENinHealth has published an interactive policy map on their website here:

https://seeninhealth.org/nhs-foi-map/

This is a huge milestone for the fabulous 40 or so mumsnetters who worked together to audit these NHS policies last year and "keep the receipts" which form the basis for this map. SEENinHealth have passed on their thanks to you all!

It is thought that there have been no single sex spaces in the NHS since 2009 despite public declarations to the contrary. The gender self ID policies on this map were in force in 2024-2025 and we found no evidence of any protected single sex spaces for staff or patients across the UK - over 300 Trusts!

We have been doing a follow up sample of FOI searches this month. The results are coming in but so far no Trusts have updated to lawful single sex spaces yet - all are waiting for EHRC guidance... the map will be updated in due course.

Please do use this data to help hold your elected representatives and NHS Trusts to account. And share with others. Sample letters and contact details are linked from the map page to make it easy to request that your Trust complies with the law.

SEENinHealth will be launching the map officially tomorrow so any help boosting their social media posts would be great thank you.

Great work! Thank you @KnottyAuty , SEENinHealth and all the wonderful auditors

Thanks for this - I find it interesting that the posters on the Reddit thread think it’s ok to stereotype women negatively but object so strongly to any equivalent discussion about trans identities.

in the end we are all very lucky to live in the uk where the law is progressive and allows for EVERYONE to to have rights. The clue is in the name - the equality act !? I find it very ignorant and f those who fail to understand or accept this.

And to those saying that the services will be trans exclusive are missing the point. There will be inclusive services but single sex for those who want that - you know - because of lived experience you know?

Nor me...🙄
