We are a community run by trans and non-binary people for all those
under the trans umbrella.
As well as planning Portsmouth's first Trans Pride event, we organise
regular meetups for coffee, board games, BBQs, and more. Our events
are open to everyone in the trans community and their friends, family,
and allies.
We also have a vibrant Discord community!
As a volunteer run non-profit we rely on donations to keep our events
free and accessible to all.
On Transgender Day of Remembrance we remember our siblings lost to
anti-trans violence, we will be holding a short demonstration
highlighting the ongoing anti-trans panic happening around the world.
Wrap up warm for the weather, bring signs and placards.

and empowered community for transgender individuals and allies in the
Portsmouth region. Our mission is to promote visibility, acceptance,
and understanding of transgender experiences, striving to create a
society where everyone can live authentically and without fear of
discrimination.
We are committed to:
Celebrating Diversity
We celebrate the rich diversity within the transgender community,
recognizing and embracing the unique experiences, identities, and
perspectives that contribute to our collective strength.
Advocacy and Education
We actively advocate for the rights and well-being of transgender
individuals by engaging in educational initiatives, raising
awareness about transgender issues, and challenging stereotypes and
misconceptions.
Safe and Inclusive Spaces
We work towards creating safe, inclusive spaces where individuals of
all gender identities can connect, share experiences, and find
support. Through events, workshops, and social gatherings, we aim to
foster a sense of belonging and camaraderie.
Collaboration and Allyship
We seek to build strong alliances with local organizations,
businesses, and individuals who share our commitment to equality and
inclusivity. By fostering collaboration, we aim to amplify our
collective impact and create a more supportive environment for
everyone.
Empowering Trans Lives
We empower transgender individuals to live authentically and with
pride by providing resources, mentorship, and a platform for sharing
personal stories. Through empowerment, we aspire to challenge
societal norms and pave the way for a more equitable future.
Trans Pride Portsmouth is driven by the belief that every person,
regardless of gender identity, deserves respect, dignity, and equal
opportunities. Together, we strive to create a community that uplifts
