Support Trans activist for her transition costs

Hi, I am a Kurdish trans and queer rights activist.

Starting my medical transition as a transgender woman has been one of the most exhilarating and affirming experiences of my life. This journey of finding a sense of self has had such a transformational impact on my mental health by helping me find hope and joy in a system which is constantly trying to strip us off our basic rights and bodily autonomy. This process, however affirming, has also been difficult to access. Gender-affirming care in the UK through NHS has long waitlists (over a decade in some clinics) and private healthcare is costly.

 I am now reaching out to my community for help. 

This fundraiser will help me access life-saving gender-affirming care and life essentials as listed below: 

- Hormonal replacement therapy 

- ⁠Full body laser hair reduction 

- ⁠Hair loss treatment

 - ⁠Feminising cosmetic procedures 

 I am hoping to raise 4000GBP to cover these costs. Every contribution—no matter how small—makes a difference. Even just sharing this page helps immensely. Your support will bring me closer to feeling home in my body while I navigate the journey of finding a home in a new country. I will continue to provide transparent updates throughout this process. I am very grateful for your support and love. 

 With love and gratitude,
