Transitioning Children - What have the courts said? and what advice have they been given?

How have the courts ruled on cases brought in the English family courts? Following the ethical approval of the Pathways Trial which could see children as young as 10 receive puberty blockers,Sarah Phillimore, barrister in the family courts, and staunch defender of free speech and children and families rights, and Charlies Plummer, formerly CAFCASS, now independent social worker, joined Maggie Mellon of EBSWA to discuss the current state of case law and the legality of CAFCASS's current guidance to its staff and to independent Guardians ad Litem reporting to the courts.  Following this discussion, with Sarah's support,  EBSWA will now be investigating ways to challenge the CAFCASS guidance.
