My name is Lucian, I'm a 22 year old Tattoo Artist based in South Lanarkshire. I'm raising funds to put towards top surgery for myself.

With the help of the Trans community, I eventually figured out why everything always felt kind of wrong. I began socially transitioning at 14 years old. I tried a bunch of different names before eventually settling on Luca, I slowly continued transitioning up until a year ago where I managed to gather up the courage and the funds to start Testosterone which is when my proper transition started.

The Glasgow catchment Gender Clinic has an unpredictable waitlist, it has had people waiting decades for hormones, nevermind surgery. This is why I opted to go private with my HRT, and now private with my procedure as well.

Going private in the UK costs more than going private in other European countries, even when you include travel and lodging, which is why I have decided to go abroad to have this procedure done.

This GoFundMe is to serve as a goal tracker for the funding of this procedure. By no means feel obligated to contribute to this fund unless you truly want to, any donations related to or out-with the flash event are received with a great deal of appreciation.

We are putting on a flash day on the 27th of June at Celestial Tattoo, 36 Castle St, Hamilton ML3 6BU
