CALL TO ACTION: TRANS+ COMMUNITY & ALLIES

The EHRC are trying to ban trans people from gender-appropriate spaces. We need as many people as possible to respond to their public consultation and stop this!

Follow this guide from Trans Actual to respond to the EHRC consultation

Thanks to public and legal pressure, the EHRC has already started walking back some of their illegal draft guidance, like banning gender-neutral toilets and ignoring privacy rights. We need to keep up the pressure and make our voices heard!

Share with friends, family, colleagues, allies! Every response counts!

Summer BBQ-Picnic

Join us for sunshine, community, and good vibes at our first Summer BBQ! Whether you're trans, non-binary, questioning, or an ally we'd love to see you there. It's a chilled afternoon to hang out, make friends, and celebrate pride together.

We'll have limited food available (mostly vegan-friendly but with some meat options too). Feel free to bring your own food to be cooked on the BBQs - we'll have space for it!

Bring a blanket, your favourite snacks, and your summer joy! All ages welcome. Respect and kindness are required. All welcome but please RSVP at the links above so we know numbers!
