The first application packs for fast track and overseas gender recognition processes are now available from the Gender Recognition Panel (GRP).

Fast track applications are for people who have transitioned at least six years ago. For the first six months (i.e. until July 2005), the GRP will deal exclusively with these applications.

The FTM network is an informal and Ad hoc self help group, open to all female to male transgender and transsexual people, or those exploring this aspect of their gender. Currently it has over 750 members in Britain and Europe, and contact with F to M groups in America, Belgium, France, Russia, China, Japan and Australia.
