TRANSforming Futures

Creating lasting change for trans communities within healthcare and criminal justice systems.

We aim to fund and create projects designed by the trans community, for the trans community, that will make trans people safer when coming into contact with healthcare and criminal justice systems.

Our work

It is important that our work is by and for all of the different trans communities within England.  

​

With this in mind we started by creating space for trans communities to create their own ideas for solving issues trans people face when coming into contact with healthcare and criminal justice systems.

Healthcare

We spoke in-depth with trans people from all regions of England in workshop settings about their experiences of healthcare. First they were asked to map the biggest issues for trans people in healthcare, then to design their own solutions to these problems.

Healthcare Report

The subsequent report seeks to elevate the voices and ideas that came from the TRANSforming Futures workshops.

Home: What We Do

“To get healthcare, someone has to see you as a whole being, if you’re white, cis, straight, male, it’s easier to see that someone as a whole. When you’re anything that deviates from that category, they start nit-picking at everything. You can’t be autistic and trans. You can’t be queer and have mental illness. These things are pitted against each other. They can’t see the complete person.”

Criminal Justice

We spoke in-depth with trans people from all regions of England in workshop settings about their experiences of criminal justice systems. First they were asked to map the biggest issues for trans people in criminal justice contexts, then to design their own solutions

Criminal Justice Report

The subsequent report seeks to elevate the voices and ideas that came from the TRANSforming Futures workshops.

Home: What We Do

“I don’t like the idea of prisons. If reporting a hate crime, no mater how bad it is or ignorant, led to prison, what is that going to do? That’s not the outcome I want. We need restorative justice. Any choice we make for the criminal justice system disproportionately affects us too."

Under 18s: Healthcare & Justice

We spoke in-depth with trans people aged under 18, and the parents & caregivers of trans children aged 11 and under  in workshop settings about their experiences of healthcare and justice. First they were asked to map the biggest issues for trans young people and trans children in England in both heath and justice contexts. Then they were asked to design their own solutions to the issues they had identified.

Under 18s

The subsequent report seeks to elevate the voices and ideas that came from the TRANSforming Futures under 18 workshops.

What's next?

The TRANSforming Futures partnership, with the help of funding from the National Lottery Community Fund, is starting to working on creating and supporting projects run by community organisations or trans community members  based on the ideas and solutions created by workshop participants.

​

If you have an idea based on the solution shared in the reports and need some support to make that idea happen get in contact with us and we will see if we can support you. 

​

In the meantime, we encourage community organisations to use the ideas recorded and shared in the  reports as a starting point in discussions about forming their own projects that are for trans communities, by trans communities.
