In line with NHS England’s vision for improving adult gender care through increased capacity and patient choice in the care pathway, Sussex Partnership Foundation Trust (SPFT) has been working with a number of key partners to establish the Sussex Gender Service Pilot (the pilot).

The pilot provides a new regional service model for the provision of a gender service, providing assessment and gender-affirming treatments in line with the national service specification for gender identity services for adults. The service provides specialist gender identity assessment and treatments for adults registered with a GP in Sussex and already on a Gender Identity Clinic waiting list elsewhere in the country. There are currently approximately 1400 people in Sussex waiting for these services and the new provision aims to significantly reduce waiting times.

The pilot is led by SPFT in partnership with the Nottingham Centre for Transgender Healthcare (NCTH), one of the seven established Gender Identity Clinics (GICs) operating across England. It also works closely with primary care and community and voluntary organisations, drawing on the close links established through the Locally Commissioned Service for trans healthcare.

The pilot launched in autumn 2023. SPFT are now looking to recruit a band 6 Specialist Speech and Language Therapist. There is already a band 8a Speech and Language Therapist working in the team that will provide the supervision of this post
