<p>Sport England collects data on transgender status through its Active Lives surveys,
which measure the activity levels of people across England. However, the number of
transgender responses received to the survey is so low that the figure is not statistically
reliable.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Sport England also funded Pride Sports, a
UK organisation which helps improve LGBT+ access to sport, to gather information on
transgender participation in all sport and physical activity. Pride Sports reported
in 2016 that there were very low rates of transgender participation and the report’s
findings helped to inform Sport England’s current work on transgender inclusion.</p><p><strong>

for Sport England’ can be found here: <a href="https://sportengland-production-files.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/pride-sport-sport-physical-activity-and-lgbt-report-2016.pdf#page=1"
