I'll be raising funds for @lovingmeuk.bsky.social refuge this year, with a little Japanese milk cartoon keyring pouch and a hand block printed cotton bag (my first ever block print on fabric.)

Our community is small and have limited support networks. If you know a trans+ person who is a victim of abuse your presence is valuable. Make sure to listen to their experience but don’t suggest what they do or say. It could endanger them. Make sure to signpost them to a DA service

Don’t advise what they say and do - It could endanger them
Do signpost them to appropriate domestic abuse services (such as ours)
Do keep their information and experience confidential
Do listen without judgement respecting their wishes and needs

Moss from Loving Me was delighted to be able to speak at this week’s Trans and Non binary inclusion event for practitioners working with survivors of sexual violence. This regular and very well attended event is hosted by the wonderful SARSAS

Healthwatch want to hear from trans and non-binary people about their experiences with their GP. This is an important research project and the data will help us to highlight the issues impacting trans people.

You can complete the survey at: https://buff.ly/4hVqzme

While we believe by and for services like ours are a powerful tool in supporting marginalised communities, it’s important that all organisations make an effort!
