Transvox Episode - Introducing Transactual and their Work
This week:
This week, Gillian chats to Chay Brown (he/him), one of the driving forces behind the organisation Transactual which can be found at https://www.transactual.org.uk/.
Their conversation ranges across a range of topics and focuses mostly on the work of trans+ activism and the role of lobby and campaigning to help push forward the trans+ agenda.
Transactual have carried out extensive research around trans+ issues and act as a source of informed and evidence based information for those seeking clarity around trans+ issues.
In June 2020 they expanded our scope and remit to:
- share reliable information about trans people’s lives and about trans rights in the UK, as well as dispelling common myths
- amplify the voices of trans people so that the wider world may hear the experiences of a wide range of trans men, trans women and non-binary people
- educate people about trans people's lives and the issues we face
- advocate for trans people
- empower trans people to bring about change in their lives and in the community
They encourage anyone that want to make ‘more of a stand’ to help support their work.
We are delighted to be part of their amazing work.
