Thank you for all of your work and for speaking out. I know what you mean. It feels so unreal but I was asked a question in an interview recently which made me realise what it will feel like to see patients in clinic once the ban comes in and I had instant tears in my eyes.

Yes - we're working on some comms around this because there's also going to be a need for funds to support whānau affected by the ban, but you can donate via patha.nz/donate

These regulations are being enacted based on politics, not on clinical evidence or best-practice decision making. We won’t let transgender children in Aotearoa be subjected to harm just to ‘win a war on woke'. We’re taking this to court because we know what’s right. The law is on our side.
