A report by Scottish policy research collective Murray Blackburn Mackenzie found that numerous women's organizations in the UK, including Women's Aid, the Women's Institute, and Girlguiding, have failed to implement changes following the Supreme Court's landmark ruling last year on biological sex. These charities continue to allow transgender women to use their services, potentially breaking the law by not adhering to the Supreme Court's definition of 'woman' as biological for the purposes of the Equalities Act.
