Binder Recycling Scheme

Trans+ Travel Fund

Launching in June 2025 will be the Trans+ Travel Fund, a fund which trans+ people in Wales getting gender-affirming surgery can apply for financial aid towards the travel costs of this surgery. There are no surgeons in Wales that provide gender-affirming surgery, meaning that people are required to travel to other cities, usually in England, multiple times for medical appointments and surgery. The travel costs of these trips have to be covered by the individual themselves and this fund aims to contribute to reducing these costs.
