The new EHRC guidance breaks the Equality Act - Trans/non-binary and gender non-comforming people can be excluded from facilities and pushed out of daily life. It will be law in 40 days - without any manifesto commitments, or even a single vote unless our MPs demand one NOW. Join us in protest
Poster detailing upcoming protest against the new EHCR guidance. It reads:
"Protest Labour's Bathroom Ban. Say no to segregation of trans people. Sunday 31st of May 2026 1 PM to 3 PM. Bedford Square, Princesshay EX1 1GJ. Hosted by Trans Pride Exeter www.TPEX.uk."

The body of the poster is a drawing of protest placards in pastel colours with various phrases including "30 year waiting waiting lists", "spat on", "outed" "banned from toilets", "denied healthcare", "denied homes", "denied equal access", "denied employment", and "Segregated". Other placards show a circle with a cross through

The UK Government is expected to publish its updated Code of Practice tomorrow – just in time for their holidays.
The UK Government is expected to publish its updated Code of Practice tomorrow – just in time for their holidays.

While MPs enjoy their break avoiding scrutiny, trans organisations will once again be left to deal with the consequences of government decisions withheld until the last moment.

Early reports in the right-wing press won’t tell us the full story.

TransActual will be reviewing the new guidance and will publish a full statement as soon as possible on the new Code, and what it may mean for you and your rights.

That doesn't mean that everyone has a good experience with them and we do know of people who aren't. If cureent patients feel there's issues with care that we need to know about then we want to know.

The Laurels had a reputation for poor treatment. There are a lot of awful stories about them in the 2010s. Current patients that we know seem to be having a generally good experience of care. But they've had to get through the 7 or 8 years of waiting first. And that wait only gets longer.
