The Telegraph reports that the NHS is treating 'trans toddlers' for gender dysphoria, citing figures that at least 10 nursery-age children are in treatment. It also mentions 157 children aged nine or younger have been referred to gender clinics.

The report suggests early intervention for those displaying signs of dysphoria, countering claims that it was influenced by activist pressure.
