Destitution, mental health problems and other socio economic conditions weigh heavily on trans people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere is very little systemic support available, with the Conservative government abandoning any reform of the Gender Recognition Act, alongside a visible increase in transphobic rhetoric and hate crime.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Planned reforms to the Gender Recognition Act (2004) would have streamlined the process of obtaining a \u201cgender recognition certificate\u201d, which trans people need in order to have their gender identity recognised in law, by allowing them self-identify as their correct gender. Currently trans people must go through a lengthy and invasive medical process in order to qualify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a two-year consultation that ended last summer, the government announced in September that the reforms <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jamiewareham\/2020\/09\/22\/uk-scraps-transgender-reforms-in-major-blow-to-lgbtq-rights--but-will-open-three-new-gics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">would not go ahead.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/profilepic1y.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-51337\" width=\"365\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/profilepic1y.jpg 512w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/profilepic1y-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/profilepic1y-293x366.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 365px) 100vw, 365px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/profilepic1y.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-51337\" width=\"365\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/profilepic1y.jpg 512w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/profilepic1y-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/thecardiffian\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/profilepic1y-293x366.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 365px) 100vw, 365px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption><strong>Local activist Shash Appan, 24, spoke at the launch event<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Shash Appan, 24, a trans woman and co-founder of Trans Aid Cymru, said: \u201cI am hopeful that this clinic will provide much-needed support to trans people when we are being harassed and discriminated against by institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI have met people who have faced discrimination from landlords, police, and employers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/623487\/homophobic-hate-crimes-in-england-and-wales-by-region\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">368 hate crimes<\/a><\/strong> based on sexual orientation recorded in South Wales between 2019-2020, and 67 targeting transgender people.
