The In-Trust Network is for men and women with a transgendered or intersex history.

The group have been meeting since December 2006.  The network held its launch in June of this year and work has already begun on a series of initiatives to help raise awareness of the many issues facing transgender people in their everyday lives both in employment and service provision.

The network is not a support group but can help to signpost trans people towards other groups in the region.

The Aims are to:

• provide a safe place to explore and express your personal gender identity
• combat isolation
• provide support with information and resources
• provide a space where all transgendered people can socialize, share experiences and exchange ideas
• combat transphobia
• promote greater acceptance and rights for all transpeople
• provide help & advice for transpeople who want to support friends, family & colleagues
• provide advice and support with transitioning

Above all, the group is intended to foster a sense of inclusion and celebration of each of us as unique and valued (trans) people.
