Start your journey with Anne and begin safe, compassionate gender-affirming healthcare with expert support every step of the way.
We hold ourselves to a simple rule:
From hormones and puberty blocker guidance to blood tests, counselling, and the admin that keeps it all moving. We’ve got you covered. All delivered by qualified clinicians and therapists who know gender-affirming care inside out.
Most of your care happens online through secure video calls, so it’s easy to get the support you need at home. And when it matters (like for blood tests) we’ll arrange in-person support too.
Anne exists because we’ve lived through the gaps in the system and refused to accept them.
We’re a not-for-profit created by parents, community leaders and clinicians who’ve spent decades supporting trans+ people and their families. We built Anne because the people we love couldn’t get the care they needed.
We only charge because we have to. Every penny goes back into improving access, quality and safety. This isn’t business for us, it’s personal. And we’re here to help make your path easier.

Most Anne appointments take place online by video call. This includes your therapeutic intake, medical consultations, and counselling sessions. You can join from wherever feels safe and comfortable for you.
Some parts of your care need to happen in person. Blood tests, for example, can be done in a way that works best for you; through your GP, at one of our partner clinics, or at home using a mobile phlebotomy service.
There are a few ways to get your blood tests done, so you can choose what works best for you.
With your GP
If you go through your GP, we’ll provide all the details you and your GP need.
At one of our partner clinics
If you’d like to visit a partner clinic, we’ll make the referral and email you simple instructions for booking your test. You’ll go to your appointment, and the lab will send your results directly to us.
Clinic blood tests are included in your monthly membership, except for Lite members.
At home with a mobile blood test service
If you choose the at-home option, we’ll email you instructions for booking. A trained healthcare professional (called a phlebotomist) will come to your home to take your blood sample. They’ll send it to the lab, and your results will be shared with us.
Please note that if there’s a clinic near you, choosing the at-home service instead may come with an extra cost.
Whichever option you choose, we’ll guide you through it and make sure everything is straightforward.
Writing your prescription is included in your membership. You’ll just need to pay for the medication itself.
The cost of medication can vary depending on what you’re prescribed, your dose, and where you get it from.
For more details, visit our hormone therapy page.
Our care is based on informed consent, but there’s still a process to follow.
All members go through an intake process. This helps us make sure hormone therapy is the right next step for you and that you understand what it involves.
If you’re prescribed hormone therapy, we’ll send you a digital prescription you can take to a local pharmacy. If you’re over 18, we can also connect you with a UK pharmacy that delivers to your home.
If you’re under 18 and accessing puberty blockers through our legal route, we’ll give you all the information you need to order, pay for, and administer the medication safely.
It can take up to 12 weeks to complete the intake process. However, this varies depending on your individual circumstances, such as the number of counselling sessions required, your availability for appointments and your blood test preference.
Joining Anne starts with an intake process that typically takes up to 12 weeks. The exact timeline depends on your situation, like how many therapy sessions you need, your schedule, and how you’d prefer to do your blood tests.
For more detailed information, see our guide to joining Anne.
Yes. We can write surgery referral letters for both members and non-members. But it’s important to know that each surgical provider has their own rules, so we can’t guarantee they’ll accept our letters.
Once you’ve chosen a surgeon, you can ask them directly if they accept referrals from Anne Health. If needed, we’re happy to reach out to them ourselves to explain who we are and how we work.
Yes. If you’re under 18, we need consent from at least one parent or legal guardian before we can welcome you to Anne Health. We’ll also need that parent or guardian to join some of your appointments if asked. This helps us make sure you’re supported and safe throughout your care.
Take the first step with Anne.
We’re here to guide and support you with inclusive, gender-affirming care built around you.
