Understanding transgender experiences and wellbeing

This interactive session provides an introduction to transgender identities and experiences, including how these experiences can impact mental health and wellbeing.

We will discuss factors which may support wellbeing, and through discussions, activities, scenarios and reflection, we will consider practical ways individuals, organisations and wider society can create more supportive and inclusive environments for transgender people. This is an interactive session with opportunities to reflect, discuss and share ideas. No prior knowledge is required.
