Help M pay for top surgery

Thank you to team member and friend Fionn for the wonderful graphics

Hi, I’m M. Like many trans people all over the world I have no access to publicly funded trans healthcare. Healthcare should be a right enjoyed by all trans people. In the UK I have faced administrative and psychiatric barriers to healthcare that leave me only two options: wait years for treatment while navigating a medical and psychiatric culture that routinely dehumanises trans patients, or seek treatment privately. I have also struggled with homelessness and getting on benefits. I want to ask you to help me raise money for top surgery. Anything you can donate will help me get closer to my goal of having this surgery this year. I’ve spent just over two years on HRT and at this point I pass as a man in all other areas of my life, so with your support I could take this final step and no longer have to live in discomfort trying to hide my chest daily. Like most trans people, who face high unemployment rates and workplace discrimination, I am low-income. Anything you can give would help. My goal is £8101, which will cover the cost of surgery with Dr Ken Stewart in Scotland, as well as gofundme charges. I cannot lose any more years to dysphoria and pain from hunching over and binding. I want to be happy in my body!

My friend Tusara has said: ""M and I have been buddies for a long time. He's a funny and cool guy that likes to play video games and loves his dogs. He's worked really hard to get where he is today, and I want to help him reach a goal he's had for a long time"
