About Us
TransLeeds: By Trans People For Trans People
TransLeeds runs support groups and social activities for trans and non binary people in Leeds and beyond. We offer medical advocacy and have a monthly binder library drop-in.
What we do
TransLeeds supports all transgender, nonbinary and gender expansive people over 18 in Leeds and the surrounding areas. Unfortunately we can't support anyone under 18, however both Gendered Intelligence and Mermaids do offer support to under 18s in Leeds.

Advocacy
We can help trans-related healthcare issues such as dealing with your GP or the gender clinic. Please contact us for more details.
Binders
We provide donated binders to anyone who needs one but can't buy one for any reason. Our binder library officer can measure you or show you how to measure yourself at a drop-in session.
• Drop-ins: Our binder library can be accessed at our masc and nonbinary support groups. Come along to a group and ask about getting fitted. (contact us for location details)
For more details, contact us at binders@transleeds.org
Donations of pre-owned binders in good condition are very welcome. You can drop them off at a drop-in or get in touch.
Our binder library travels! If you are interested in hosting a binder drop in, send us an email to get started.
Training
We provide trans awareness and bespoke training packages to other organisations for a small fee. Please see our training page for more details
