The Christian Medical Fellowship (CMF) says it is ‘hugely encouraged’ by The Cass Review into gender identity services for under-18s.
Author and renowned paediatrician Dr Hilary Cass writes in the review that children have been let down by a lack of research and ‘remarkably weak’ evidence on medical interventions in gender care.
She also wants gender services for young people to match the standards of other NHS care and says the ‘toxicity’ of the debate around gender meant professionals were ‘afraid’ to openly discuss their views.
