BE: Trans Support & Development North

BENorth

Be: has always believed in the importance of peer support and the provision of safe spaces that our community can gather and express themselves, as the community has grown we have engaged with partners all across the North east and eventually establishing ourselves as a contributor to empowering trans lives on a national level.

Today we find ourselves supporting trans lives, challenging discrimination and providing education, improving healthcare and social pathways and working with both regional and national partners to improve the provision of services and rights of Transgender, non-binary, and gender diverse people.
