Cody is a 19 year old trans guy from the UK who is desperately trying to begin his medical transition which will start with Testosterone. Currently the waiting lists to see NHS gender clinics are so long that many people are resorting to going privately because they just cannot wait that long due to their dysphoria causing them significant distress. This happens to also be the case for Cody. He has decided that the best option for his mental health is to access private healthcare through GenderCare. He was hoping that this is something he would be able to pay for himself but this hasn‘t been possible, as he is currently a student, and hasnt been able to work for the last few months due to the severity of his mental illness struggles and his physical disabilities. He hopes that these will be better managed soon so that he is able to work but currently its extremely difficult and I do believe that starting hormones will help to improve his mental health making it easier for him to work. He also has unsupportive parents so therefore there isn’t the option for them to help with the funding. The money I aim to raise will go towards an appointment with Dr Dundas and an appointment with Dr Coxon, with the extra going towards cost of travel and any extra costs. This really means a lot to Cody and anything helps, even just sharing this fundraiser. I wish it hadn’t gotten to this point but it has and many friends have suggested to go ahead with trying to fundraise, as after all, it’s people’s personal choice to donate and it’s well worth a try at this point. To anyone that helps, thank you so much.
