The Supreme Court ruled on 16 April that the legal definition of a woman should be based on biological sex as in the Equality Act 2010.
We know that NHS England will be providing all trusts with national guidance on this issue and that there will be a significant amount of work to be done in light of this ruling.
We will continue to provide the same level of care and support to trans people, however we may need to make some changes to the way we operate single sex spaces across our trust, to comply with the interim guidance from the Equality and Human Rights Commission – please check this guidance for more information.
