PROPER HEALTHCARE Everyone should have access to the care and support they need.
Our children should be able to take part in society without being treated differently and without fear of prejudice or exclusion. FREEDOM FROM DISCRIMINATION
FREEDOM FROM DISCRIMINATION Everyone should be treated fairly in every area of life.
Non-binary people should also be recognised in law so that no one is left unseen or excluded.
Our children should be able to have documents that reflect who they are, with a process that is straightforward, accessible and does not disadvantage them.
Legal Recognition Everyone should be able to live safely and confidently as themselves.
Transparent Action - Proud Parents Taking a Stand
Our children should be called by their correct names and pronouns and know that those around them will treat them with respect.
Respect & Dignity Every person deserves to be recognised for who they are and be treated with kindness

I am pleased that Scouting has welcomed girls into the organisation in all sections since 1991- all girls. Scouting is for everyone and will remain so. Again, I do not know the numbers, but there are many trans children throughout the organisation. They will continue to be welcome.”
...These organisations have given joy and a sense of belonging to generations and have prided themselves on their inclusivity. I do not know how many trans girls are at present in the Guiding organisation, but this decision makes no sense. What danger does a child pose? Imagine being told you are not welcome at 5, or 6 to enjoy activities with your friends. Friends you play with every day at school...
Parents of trans people speak out... “As a member of uniformed organisations for 50 years, I am deeply saddened by the decision for Girl Guiding to no longer be trans-inclusive. I went through Brownies and Guides, moving over to Scouting at 18. My own daughters each chose different paths- one Guiding, the other Scouting...
