We’re joined by co-hosts Angela and John to speak with Jen Shields, the President of PATHA (Professional Association for Transgender Health Aotearoa).

We discuss the recent Cass Review in the UK, what impact it has had overseas, and what we’re likely to see happen in NZ as we approach the release date for a report into healthcare here.

John’s recent article on this can be found here.
