Request Details
I have a pre surgery assessment appointment in Parkside, London on the 19th August that I need help with travel cost wise.
The cheapest I have got my train ticket down to is £73 with my disabled pip rail card, although I have issues travelling alone as per my eligibility with Pip I need someone to come with me so I will have to cover the costs of 2 people travelling. (I haven't included the cost for the second person here because I'm not sure if that's covered by you)
(I cannot get a megabus there because of the timings that I need to be at the clinic on that particular morning)
Any help with costs would amazing please as I didn't know there would be so many visits between pre op assessments and the actual surgery and it is very expensive
Thank you

Expense policies
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.
