Yes, getting senior people to say things to all staff not just the ones who are making a fuss, is the issue. I believe my department has no intention to change anything based on EHRC interim guidance, but SLT haven't said so plainly. We have multiple openly trans staff, which makes the lack of comms worse.
Thank you for your work on this, and best wishes for the meeting on Thursday.
(My own very small daily action is to have added a trans pride wristband to my daily outfit and added progress pride and trans pride badges to my bag straps. I've also got a progress pride badge on my emergency "academic smart" jacket for meetings and presentations. But I need to make time to write to my MP.)
