Cambridge University Students’ Union Lesbian, Bisexual, Gay and Transgender Campaign
Trans meets in Cambridge and London
Many trans meets do not advertise their full details online, but ask people to join a closed group or to send emails.
It is very much worth emailing a large organisation (such as the Beaumont Society) to ask directly whether there are any meets or support groups in the area.
FTM Cambridge
Meets at:
Arts Cinema
38-39 St Andrew's Street
Cambridge
E-mail: ftm.cambridge@yahoo.co.uk (Tom or Marcus)
Meets monthly. Open to FTMs before, during or after transition, to female-bodied people who are questioning their gender identity, and to all those assigned female at birth who feel that that's not the whole story. Future meetings are planned which will include partners and supporters too. There will be a distinctive red and yellow hat on the table at the Arts Cinema for recognition purposes. E-mail for more information.
TransLondon
E-mail: translondon@hotmail.co.uk
Website: http://www.translondon.org.uk/
Discussion/support group for all members of the Trans community, whatever their gender identity (or identities) and whatever stage in their transition they have reached (if at all). However, all members must themselves be Trans-identified or questioning.
Meets on the third Tuesday of every month at 7.30pm at Gay's The Word Bookshop, 66, Marchmont Street, London, WC1N 1AB.
