Stonewall’s main focus is to let all young lesbian, gay, bi and trans people - as well as those who are questioning - here and abroad, know they're not alone. They want to empower all young people, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, to campaign for equality and fair treatment
for LGBTQ people, and against discrimination. They believe we're stronger when we work together, so they partner with organisations that help them create real change for the better. They are here to support those who can’t yet be themselves. But their work is not yet finished.
Not until everyone feels free to be who they are, wherever they are.
Understanding gender diversity in creative ways
Gendered Intelligence is a trans-led, not for profit organisation. They provide a wide range of non-judgemental practical services, designed to increase trans inclusion and support.
Gendered Intelligence runs a range of youth groups in London, Leeds and Bristol for young trans people, non-binary and questioning young people aged under 21. No matter how you identify, Gendered Intelligence's trans youth groups are open to all young trans people - whether you're brand new to identifying as trans, still questioning your identity, or if you consider yourself to be post-transition or as having a trans history. We strive to be fully inclusive of individuals who identify as non-binary/other, as well as male or female.
