We were shocked by last week Supreme Court decision which will have significant impact on everyone’s rights. Following this decision, we feel it is important to be clear that at SCLC, we support and stand in solidarity with the trans community.

We regularly get emails from parents and carers of children with additional support needs who's rights are being breached.

Our solicitors provide vital info and advice on children's rights, but we know that systemic changes are needed.

⤵️ Great piece with lots of info and stats on this issue!
