About this event

We want healthcare providers to feel confident supporting trans patients in sexual health spaces. This session will help you to better understand, communicate, and engage with the trans community by providing information on trans identities and lived experiences in a safe, non-judgmental space. We’ll take a look at the main barriers trans people face accessing sexual health services and explore what you as an organisation can do to break them down. There will be lots of chances for discussion and plenty of activities!

Note: this training is for people who live or work in Buckinghamshire.

Who should attend: Professionals who want to improve their knowledge, awareness and confidence in working with trans clients, making their service more accessible, and knowing where to signpost and refer holistically. Resource sheets will be shared with participants after the session, as well as the zoom recording and slides for reference
