Talk to us!
Our online youth forum for trans, non binary, gender diverse and gender questioning young people between 12 and 19 years old, has grown from a starting point of 3 members to over 300. The forum is a safe space for you to ask questions, talk about how you are doing, and share experiences with others in the same or similar circumstances to you. It is important that we are respectful of one another and the group is a wonderful place to find community and allay fears. The space is moderated by the Support Line team to make sure it is a safe space for all. Through access to the forum, you can see details of our weekly online peer meet ups, our Dungeons & Dragons and gaming groups, our events and more opportunities to get involved.
It operates through an email service so you should have a valid email address.
If you would like to join the youth forum we will ask you to read and agree to follow the rules and code of conduct. As part of you joining the forum we ask that you share some personal contact information and we arrange a time to talk to you so we can verify your identity and make sure that your application is genuine. We take the safety and security of our groups very seriously, for your protection, and to allow you to post and ask questions with the knowledge that to the best of our abilities, your information is confidential. The information is accessed by members of our Support Line moderation team only.
To apply, complete the form below to join the group. Please complete all of the fields so we can progress your application.
This group is open to trans, non binary, gender diverse and gender questioning young people from 12 years old up to and including the age of 19. When you reach 20 years of age, we will get in touch to let you know that your access to the forum will come to an end, and let you know about other options for getting involved with our work, such as our range of volunteering opportunities, and link you in with other organisations if it’s helpful.
As part of the security measures, we will ask you for a phone number, and arrange a safe time to call, so that we can call and talk more about what you are looking for, and before we can approve you to join the group. The call will be from a withheld number, to maintain confidentiality. We will explain all of this in an email after you apply so you can ask any questions about the process.
We look forward to you joining our online community!
