, Just been into your Bham store to try on a couple prom dresses, but was told I wasn’t allowed to because of my gender assigned at birth. Could you confirm if this is company policy? thanks :)At the time, Charlie was shopping with their partner, who is also non-binary but presents more feminine.Charlie said: ‘We took the clothes to the changing room cubicles, which were open and not labelled by any gender.
‘Five minutes had passed and the same lady told me “you can’t wait here, you have to wait at the front” because apparently they had lots of complaints from women and children. So, I had to wait by the tills for my partner.’
