Research project
My research project explores transgender (trans) and non-binary people’s experiences of accessing healthcare in the UK using qualitative and arts-based methods. A significant number of trans and non-binary people avoid accessing healthcare due to fear of discrimination or report negative experiences of accessing healthcare services. Research in this area is crucial to implementing change in clinical practice and education.
