This session is not only for the new and/or questioning; all who can benefit from the space are welcome, even if it’s just for a quiet sit-down in a trans-only environment. 1-1 drop-ins will be available as always.
We’ll cover a range of options and resources both medical and social, because there is no one way to transition, and we want everyone to have autonomy on their personal journey.
trans safety net sheffield. Hatchlings: getting started. 3rd November 6-9pm, Gut Level.
Next session on 3rd November has been designed in response to the most common sentiment we receive in our emails and DMs: I’ve realised I’m trans but I don’t know where to start.
