๐Ÿ“ข Reminder: Upcoming Webinar on Gender Affirming Care โ€“ 17 July, 7pm

Following feedback from the Pride survey earlier this year, members asked for more insight into the medicines and pathways used in gender affirming care.

In response, the Pride Branch is hosting a webinar with a very special guest: Lauren Keatley-Hayes, prescribing pharmacist and PDA LGBT+ Committee member. Based in the North-West, Lauren is passionate about improving care for trans and non-binary patients and driving change in pharmacy practice.

This session will explore the different medicines involved in gender affirming care and highlight the barriers and inequalities patients face in accessing them.
