Request Details
Hello, I am requesting assistance to fund psychotherapy to help me get through a current ongoing trauma regarding my metoidioplasty. I am in need of a handful of appointments in November and December to prepare myself for surgery, because of many circumstances and issues with the surgery team which have put me in a position of extreme distress and distrust. My goal with therapy is to process the trauma cause by my surgical team this year, and to find a place of acceptance of what has happened, and strength to go through with the surgery I desperately need. I am severely struggling to keep going, and unable to afford therapy. Thankyou for your consideration.

Expense policies
We accept claims for the cost of medications, food, transport to appointments, counselling and anything related to your transition. We also support trans, nonbinary, and intersex (TIN) folk with bills and living expenses. We do not currently accept claims for money for pet expenses.

If you are applying for the first time, please provide the first half of your postcode and a link to one of your social media accounts in the "additional invoice information" box. This is to verify your identity and prevent scammers from taking money from trans people. 

Please also let us know how much you need (max. £60 per month) and what you need it for (eg. bills, food, debt etc etc) in the "additional invoice information" box.

We don't allow reoccurring grants set through open collective, we ask that you don't set your grant to reoccur automatically as it adds strain to our grant team and can create duplicate expenses.

For our full policy, please read the below document for full requirements when submitting for funding. https://transaid.cymru/types-of-grants/
