The Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) is a highly specialised clinic for young people presenting with difficulties with their gender identity. Our service was established in 1989. Some people feel uncomfortable with the gender they were assigned at birth whilst others are unhappy with the gender role that society requires. We help our clients to explore their feelings and choose the path that best suits their ideals.We spend a lot of time engaging with clients to understand their thought processes and to help them manage any uncertainties they may have and be understood.
. The Tavistock and Portman NHS foundation Trust are the providers of the Gender Identity Clinic (GIC)
