Hi! I'm running the Hackney 5K on May 19th to raise funds for Gendered Intelligence's youth summer camps. These camps provide a vital opportunity for trans* and non-binary youth to come together and experience community with one another and the outdoors.
Please consider donating to support trans* youth!
A bit of info on Gendered Intelligence:
Gendered Intelligence is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company, est 2008. We work predominantly with the trans community and those who impact on trans lives; we particularly specialise in supporting young trans people aged 8-25. Our mission is to increase understandings of gender diversity through creative ways. Our vision is of a world where people are no longer constrained by narrow perceptions and expectations of gender, and where diverse gender expressions are visible and valued.
Why the community needs us
We offer: Youth group sessions for young trans people (aged 8-25) to meet, socialise, receive information and support // One-on-one mentoring for trans students in education // Support for families of young trans people online and in person // Special projects and workshops themed around gender // Training for professionals in organisations, schools and youth services that work with trans students, clients or staff // Resources for trans youth, their families and those who work with them.
