Abstract
These recommendations were developed as part of the ‘Trans* Health Participatory
Action Research’ Project led by River Ujhadbor, an NIHR Pre-doctoral Fellow at King’s
College London. The project aimed to improve our understandings of the complex interplay between institutional processes, social environments and the mental lives of young trans* people.
For 12 weeks we shared a collective journey of Participatory Action Research (PAR)
exploring our experiences of living life as a trans* person and seeking gender-affirming care on the NHS. By using arts-based and qualitative social-science methods, we mapped the obstacles young people face in attempting to access these services and we learnt about the subsequent mental-health impact of navigating these obstacles.
