CHESTICLES, BE GONE!! (Top Surgery Fund) ✨

Donation protected
Hi! I am a 24-year-old trans man from the UK and a full-time wheelchair user. To be able to live my life as myself is all I have ever wanted, but gender dysphoria and the waiting lists for affirming care make that incredibly difficult. I want to be free, and I want to look in the mirror without feeling ill. I want my body to feel like mine. I have already started testosterone, which has helped with my dysphoria massively, but there is still a great deal of dysphoria crippling me every day. To ease this, I would need bilateral (double incision) top surgery, which, frankly, is money I do not have. I would also have to pay for transport to and from the hospital and accommodation for me and my carers, which, again, I cannot afford. It's a scary time to be trans right now, and so I know there are going to be lots of people who aren't going to understand and make their assumptions. But I wouldn't be doing it if I wasn't one thousand per cent sure it's what I want and need. This surgery would genuinely be life-changing for me. I hate to be asking this, and it feels risky with everything happening in the world right now, but I wouldn't be if I weren't desperate. So, if you can spare anything, please consider helping me make my body feel more like my own.

Your donations will go towards:

  • Consultation(s) with a gender specialist who will send a referral for surgery; this will basically confirm I am ready for surgery and must be done before I can have my initial consultation with my surgeon. (£450; £540)
  • Initial consultation with the surgeon. (£250)
  • The surgery itself. (Approximately £12,000)
  • Accommodation and travel for me and my carer. This includes all consultations, pre-op, surgery, and post-op. (still working out the cheapest options)

Thank you for your time and for all the donations so far; it truly means more than you'll ever know.
