No information on Gender Dysphoria or Transgender at the HCW

I just performed a search on the Health Commission Wales website for “Gender Dysphoria” and “Transgender” suffice to say that the first search came up with nothing at all, which goes to show that the HCW has no interest whatsoever in helping those living in Wales that have been diagnosed with Gender Dysphoria, mind you they don’t even understand what it is anyway are they are quite pig headed in anything that has to do with the subject.
On my section search for “Transgender” it came up with two results, the first a collection of sites which most of us already know and are usually given to by our clinical psychologists when we first start the ball rolling on our long journey, or should that be fight, of gender transition.
The second a link to Jane Hutt AM, upon reading of this page the only thing I could find on transgender was this, “Inclusion in schools with particular reference to looked after children, refugees and asylum seeker children, ethnic minorities, pupils who are carers, young parents, traveller children, gay/bisexual/transgender pupils;”
So far as I can see the HCW just has no interest in showing what they are actually doing to help those with Gender Dysphoria and unless anyone tells me otherwise they are still refusing people funding for Gender Reassignment Surgery (GRS) on the grounds of “No Clinical Need” or “We must put funding to other more important needs, such as alcoholism, obesity and drug abuse” yeah right!
