Thank you so much to everyone who has ever volunteered for TransM London or FTM London, given us advice or donations, or come to one of our meetings.

It has been an honour and a joy to meet many of the trans men and transmasculine people that make up our community.

📣 Update 📣

You may have noticed we’ve been quiet on here for a few months–many apologies.

To be honest, we’ve been struggling with changing structure: from an informal peer support group, to an official non-profit with all the relevant policies and funding in place...

This is aimed at young trans people, but worth reading whatever your age if you're trans and worried about what the EHRC's Single-Sex Guidance means for you.

Essentially, it's guidance, it's not the law.

[Mermaids @Mermaids_Gender]

We've received many questions from trans youth, families, carers and professionals about the EHRC's Single-Sex Guidance. We have created a helpsheet aimed at young people to help you understand what the guidance means and your rights.

2️⃣ We’re holding our first in-person meet-up of 2022 this Saturday!

As ever, apologies for the short notice. We’ll be meeting in Green Park from 2pm-5pm this Saturday to hang out, play frisbee and do some colouring in.

Hope to see you there!

We know there's a lot of bad news at the moment, but here are two pieces of good news...

1️⃣ We have an exciting new name and logo! FTM London is now TransM London CIC 🎉🎉

[TransM London CIC @TransM_London]

...but if transmasculinity is also part of your identity, we want you to feel welcome to use our services.

We've changed our social media handles to match our new name, and will also be moving to a new website shortly—watch this space!

As the UK LGBT+ umbrella body, we wholeheartedly back @StonewallUK’s decision to withdraw support for the UK Government-led Safe To Be Me conference. Read our statement here: https://t.co/hmdA2hXrDz #NotSafeToBeMe #TransRightsAreHumanRights #BanConversionTherapy
