Trans Gender Change - Administrative Support for Staff

If you are contacted by a student needing advice on the best way to make administrative changes, accommodation requirements, additional professional support etc. to assist with their transition, there is someone who can help.

It has been found preferable to have one point of contact to manage any administrative changes and for that individual to liaise on their behalf with other areas within the University as required. We realise that circumstances may be different for each trans gender change student and we will make the time to ensure their individual circumstances are fully considered.

In the first instance, contact Marie Boam in the Taught Programmes Office (Level 6, University House) either by email m.boam@sheffield.ac.uk or phone (0114) 222 1289 who can talk through the support available and what the procedures are to make these administrative changes.

Contacts have been established with colleagues in the Students’ Union, Accommodation and Campus Services and in other sections of Student Services such as Counselling Services, University Health Service and Student Support and Guidance providing a wide range of professional, academic and personal support.
