Gender Outreach Workers at Leeds Gender Identity Service

Leeds Gender Identity Service is a nationally commissioned service and we receive referrals from Primary Care in South Yorkshire. We have an outreach peer support service aimed at supporting trans, non-binary and gender diverse people on our waiting list and care pathway.

Gender Outreach Workers have lived experience of transition and work in partnership with Leeds Gender Identity Service, Yorkshire MESMAC and Lancashire LGBT. Workers are based in Yorkshire and Lancashire but are accessible by anyone on the Leeds Gender Identity Service waiting list, care pathway, or people thinking about referral in the NHS England area. Gender Outreach Workers provide in-person one-to-one, telephone and online video sessions. Peer support groups are available. 

The Leeds Gender Identity Service webpage provides more information about the main gender service, referral routes and treatment if you want to learn more, as well as a section for Gender Outreach Workers https://www.leedsandyorkpft.nhs.uk/our-services/gender-identity-service/
