TRANS MISSION’s sole aim is to make it easier for trans and gender variant people to get relevant information, advice and support.

Trans Mission was first set up as a “Coffee morning in the evening”. Since those humble beginnings we have grown and expanded as a direct response to the needs of our community. We now support trans and Gender Variant people across West Yorkshire in a range of ways both practical and emotional.

We run social and support groups in three different cities (and are looking to expand this in the months to come.), a food bank, a Swap-Shop, mental health well-being groups and  a Peer Support Mentor Program with 4 trained Peers Support Mentors (PSM’s) across Bradford, Leeds, Halifax, and Bingley.

We also offer training for companies wanting to educate themselves and their staff about Trans and Non Binary people. Previous clients have included the Police, NHS, Universities and Colleges.

In 2017 Trans  Mission developed a series of workshops designed to promote positive mental health, and to tackle the internalised transphobia many of us carry with us. For more information go to the “WORKSHOPS” tab

In 2018 we were funded to bring the organisations support services to Doncaster and now run a monthly event that sees all our main support groups running at the same time in the same building. Click on the “OUR GROUPS” tab to learn more.
