We are a community run by trans and non-binary people for all those under the trans umbrella.

As well as planning Portsmouth's 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.

As a volunteer run non-profit we rely on donations to keep our events free and accessible to all.
