TRANSGENDER women will be banned from becoming members of the Women’s Institute from April next year.

The decision has been taken “with the utmost regret and sadness”, the organisation said, adding that it retains the “firm belief that transgender women are women”.

The National Federation of Women’s Institutes (NFWI) said it had made the policy change in the wake of the Supreme Court ruling earlier this year on biological sex.

The NFWI news comes a day after Girlguiding announced it has banned trans girls from joining.
