Great News coming out of Mermaids this morning
We are relieved to share with you that the Charity Commission inquiry into Mermaids which began nearly two years ago is finally over.
The report outlines that Mermaids was subjected to large numbers of vexatious complaints made to the Commission and as we expected, they found no concerns regarding our vital work with trans young people and their families.
Mermaids’ trustees have accepted that historically, our governance did not always keep pace with our rapid growth and we were not as inclusive as we wanted to be. We have taken steps to improve in both areas. You can read our full statement

We want to thank you deeply for supporting us through the inquiry,
It is thanks to you that, despite the best efforts of those who oppose our mission to support and advocate for trans young people, we are now able to expand our efforts to create a safe, inclusive society where all trans people are empowered to live their best lives.
We are relieved that the Charity Commission Inquiry which began nearly two years ago is finally over. The report states, as we anticipated, that there is no finding of misconduct at Mermaids.
