The Church of England has been urged to abandon its transgender guidance for children, which is believed to be influenced by Mermaids – the transgender charity now under investigation by the Charities Commission.

According to the guidance, teachers should affirm children as young as five wanting to identify as the opposite gender. Justin Welby wrote the Foreword and explicitly commended it.

Nigel and Sally Rowe, the Christian parents who recently won their judicial review against the Department of Education after it refused to review the Cornwall Schools Transgender Guidance, have now written an open letter to Dr Welby calling on the CofE to urgently scrap the guidance.
