In 2023, a joint bid was submitted to National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) to deliver a project using a Community Research model. This project focuses on trans+ people who experience inequity and inaccessibility in cancer services. The project is being led by Help & Care alongside partners Macmillan Cancer Support, Beyond Reflections, Bournemouth University, Southampton University Hospital, Wessex Cancer Trust and Wessex Cancer Alliance.
Stevie Corbin-Clarke and Katie Munday, from the Trans Aware Cancer Care project met with Gillian Russel from the Transvox podcast to talk about the how the project is a vital part of work to help many communities to have their needs more effectively met.
