Publication of draft Conversion Practices Ban

The Government have published a proposed draft bill to ban Conversion Therapy, which is trans inclusive and includes an explicit ban on the use of Exorcism as a form of Conversion Therapy Practice.

We are so grateful to see this Bill, and for everyone who has campaigned for it.

The bill also aims to prevent people from being taken to other countries to undergo Conversion Therapy Practices.

The bill sets a legal definition of conversion practices as conduct which "aims to change someone's sexual orientation or transgender identity through abusive acts that seriously harm the victim"

We know there will be further debates about what constitutes "Abusive Practices", and we know how much all these practices harm victims, survivors like ourselves.

We are really pleased that the bill has reached this stage and are hopeful that a full, trans inclusive, Conversation Therapy Practices Ban will pass through the government.
