The Tavistock Centre, which runs Britain’s only publicly-funded gender identity development service, is to be sued by up to 1,000 people in a mass class action lawsuit, according to the lawyer behind the case.

Tom Goodhead, CEO of Pogust Goodhead, an international law firm hired by the families of former patients, could not put precise figures on the number of people expected to sue, but said he expected the suit to be very large.
