@Genderintell @hevjoanne @trans_mum @wokinggirl1 @TransActualUK Thank you x there is also the Outhouse in Colchester who may be able to help or if they join our Facebook group one of our members might be able to recommend something more local. We are planning to start up events next month too.

@hevjoanne @trans_mum @wokinggirl1 @TransActualUK @Genderintell Thanks Heather. We are just checking if there are any groups we know of but in the meantime if they want to join our Facebook group there is a lot of peer support available. We have a wide range of ages and experience and different stages of their journey.

Due to lockdown Transpire is unable to commemorate this day by holding an event, but it is still just important as ever to remember everyone in our trans community worldwide who have lost their lives or been subject to terrible violence just for being themselves.

[Gendered Intelligence @Genderintell]

Metro are looking to interview trans actors, directors and writers about their experiences in the industry, and what they think about the proposed scrapping of the Gender Recognition Act.

If you are interested, get in touch with Lucy Middleton [email protected]

[Essex Police LGBT @EssexPoliceLGBT]

We know that lockdown has been incredibly tough and, as always, there are great #LGBT community resources in Essex you can engage with.

The work of places like @OuthouseEast and @transsouthend is crucial, and we're proud to support them. #PRIDE2020

We'd say "the fightback starts now" or something cheesy but the fightback never ended - as trans people we're constantly having to push for basic legal recognition, let alone things as luxurious as basic healthcare.

As an org we're trying to push for positive change... 1/3

[Gendered Intelligence @Genderintell]

We have it on good standing that we have until TOMORROW to urge the Prime Minister to not give the greenlight to damaging plans around trans equality and dignity - please write to him using our tool here
