  • Hey everyone, how are you all doing?

  • It's my birthday on the 5 May last year I did a live stream and gave a link to an Amazon wishlist in case any of you wanted to buy me presents.

  • Well this year I'd like to give back.

  • As many of you know, I am a transgender woman living in the United Kingdom.

  • The situation for transgender people in the UK is very bad right now.

  • There are a lot of negative things said about us in newspapers and on tv and the public healthcare system doesnt give us the care we need.

  • To give you an idea, I have been on the waiting list to get treatment on the National Health Service for almost four years and I will probably be on that waiting list for at least another year.

  • I use private healthcare but most transgender people cannot afford this.

  • So for my birthday I would love it if you could give money to five for five, an organization that gives money to different transgender organisations in the UK every month.

  • Five for five distributes money to a variety of transgender organisations, but it also gives to individual trans people who need money for housing, food, medicine and surgery.

  • You can give money monthly like I do, or go to the give page and give a one time donation in the section that says Paypal.

  • One off giving.

  • I would really appreciate anything you can give.

  • Knowing that you're helping my trans siblings in my country would really make me happy.

  • So go to fivefor five dot co dot UK and give whatever you can.

  • But if you think hey Ariel deserves a treat too, then you can go to easystoriesinenglish.com happybirthday where I've made a little birthday wishlist.

  • Of course I completely understand if you don't have any money to give or if you don't want to, that's completely fine.

  • Just listening to the podcast is enough of a present for me.

  • So again, that's five four five dot co dot UK to give to transgender charities and easystoriesinenglish.com happybirthday to buy me treats ok, let's start the episode.

  • Welcome to easy stories in English, the podcast that will take your english from ok to good and from good to great.
