Following publication of the Cass Review and the Transgender Trend Report - The Ideological Capture of Dorset - Nowhere To Turn we contacted the Pan Dorset Childrens Safeguarding Partnership and requested that the reports be discussed at their next meeting (25th April 2024). We never received a response from the Partnership but recently noticed via their Minutes  (Item 7) that they did discuss the reports. An action from those Minutes is that NHS Dorset provides a response to the Cass Review. Everyone involved in strategic safeguarding in Dorset, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is now aware of the Cass and Transgender Trend Reports. We await the response from NHSDorset

Women of Dorset have contacted those standing as PPC 's in the eight Dorset constituencies.  These are the questions we have asked:- Women of Dorset was established to protect womens  sex based rights & safeguarding in Dorset, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole.  We're an eclectic mix of women who believe that a woman is an adult human female and that:- the law allows for single sex sevices and most people want to them but they are under attack; organisations and staff are afraid even though everyone knows the difference between male and female; language has become a battleground and everyone is walking on egg shells; no one wants to be the one to tell someone that their sense of gender identity cannot override rules that protect the safety, fairness and dignity of everyone. Confusion makes services less inclusive and less safe.  It creates conflict and it isn't kind, least of all to women.  It is up to the Government to put this right.  Therefore, we ...

The High Court has ruled today that Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) Council’s policy of having no limit on the number of strip clubs is unlawful. The Court decided that the Council was wrong to ignore concerns that strip clubs contribute to the abuse, harassment and violence against women and girls in society.
