The judicial review claim, being brought by the group Sex Matters, challenges the CLC's access policy for the bathing ponds, which allows trans men to use the men's ponds and trans women to use the women's ponds.

The decision to allow TransLucent to intervene means the group will submit additional arguments and information to the legal claim, set to be heard on 3 and 4 November. The group says this means the High Court can hear directly from trans people impacted by the policy.

The ponds are managed by the CLC, which in June 2026 decided to keep the ponds trans-inclusive in light of a public consultation which saw 86% of respondents in say they were in favour of retaining the policy.

Okay I’ve changed it to that, although it’s a much worse title as it implies some sort of positive event rather than highlighting the injustice.
