TRANS AID CYMRU

MUTUAL AID FOR the COMMUNITY BY THE COMMUNITY

Trans Aid Cymru aims to help Transgender, Non-Binary and Intersex (TIN) people through mutual aid support. The project is run by TIN people for TIN people, making it inclusive and understanding of the community needs.

OUR PROJECTS

We run a multitude of projects to help the community. You can find out more about each one of them here. All the pages also contain guidance on how to apply.

ABOUT US

Founded by a group of transgender and non-binary folk, we have formed a mutual aid to support others in Wales! Find out more about our roots here.

GET INVOLVED

Whether you are trans, intersex or non-binary person or an ally, there are ways to get involved. Check out our projects pages, social media. If you have a particular idea emails us!

EVENTS

Some of our events are private for safeguarding ! So get in contact if you want to know more.
Check out past events at our Eventbrite Page!

REDISTRIBUTING FUNDS

One of our main aims is making sure TIN people can cover their costs of living and their transition. We help with this by redistributing money through fundraisers and to TIN people in need.


IN NEED OF FUNDS?

We have a few different types of grant available to claim, from everyday assistance grants, emergency funds and fundraising top ups! We have a page to explain them all and how you can apply.

TRANSPARENT FUNDRAISING

Being transparent and accountable is one of our core values as an organization. It’s one of the reasons we chose Open Collective as our financial mechanism.

Open Collective allows everyone to see not only the number of contributions made and the amount contributed, but also the particular area of our work that they’ve gone to. You can choose to donate to fund a counselling session, or to help with our running costs, or for your money to go to for redistribution.

WHAT SUPPORT DO WE OFFER?

We offer support to TIN folks who are struggling, either with their transition or their day-to-day life. We also have connections with other services that can help support you with your daily needs.

Things we’ve helped with include risk of homelessness, loneliness, mental crisis, helping folks access other sources of funds, finding housing, advocacy if you’ve been discriminated against and much more!

OTHER SUPPORT SERVICES FOR TIN PEOPLE

We previously ran a Carrd website full of resources for Welsh TIN people! This website is still active and updated but as TAC grew up we’ve migrated a lot of our projects here. The services on the Carrd vary from Facebook groups to Charities or meet up groups!
