TransActual are looking for people to join our (volunteer) board of directors.

We’ve decided to expand the size of our board of directors in order to make it more representative of the communities we serve and so that there are more people to support the work of our growing organisation. In particular, we’re keen to receive applications from Black trans people and Trans People of Colour.

More info: https://transactual.org.uk/volunteer/

Do you know what U = U means? It's short for undetectable is untransmittable. When a person living with HIV is on effective treatment, the levels of HIV in their blood will be so low as to be undetectable. If someone's HIV is undetectable, they can't pass it on (transmit) to others when having sex.

“It takes a lot of thinking and courage to come out and define your gender as something else, especially outside of the binary. Therefore, trans people are generally pretty certain and we really don’t need anyone questioning us.” Fi

Self-determination for trans people is nothing new. Sir Ewan Forbes changed the sex on his birth certificate in the 1940s, announced his new name in the newspaper and legally married his wife. His cousin challenged the change for reasons of inheritance, but the judge ruled in Ewan’s favour.

"The first thing I think about when I wake up and the last thing I think about before I get to sleep is dysphoria. It also appears throughout the day, whenever I go to the toilet. Luckily applying testosterone is part of my morning routine." Eddie

"Through my own identity as a trans man, and one of a race other than white, I really wanted to share my own experiences to show that everyone's on a different path. It's not an easy journey and I don't think it's ever really over. It can be emotionally draining, but it can also be really rewarding." Leo Sheng

“Transgender youth who were able to use their chosen names in multiple contexts reported fewer depressive symptoms and less suicidal ideation and behaviour. For transgender youth who choose a name different from the name given at birth, use of their chosen name in multiple contexts appears to affirm their gender identity and lower mental health risks known to be high in this group.” Russell et al, Journal of Adolescent Health, 2018

"More training is needed for frontline NHS staff, I feel like the trans community is often required to educate the people who are gatekeeping their access to the services they need. The waiting times are maddening! Three years or more of waiting is is not acceptable, especially when gender dysphoria is your daily companion." Liv
