Gendered Intelligence also run regular arts based weekend workshops across different parts of the UK. We often do this in collaboration with other organisations. In previous workshops we have gathered up to 40 young trans people at any one time. We like to set key questions in order to discuss the needs of our community. Previously, in collaboration with Terence Higgins Trust as part of their young leaders programme, we have explored the sexual health needs of young trans people. In conjunction with the Equalities and Human Rights Commission, we have also asked questions around legal rights for young trans people.
Gendered Intelligence also facilitated a group to produce a booklet for young trans people by young trans people. It gathers stories, sources, facts and tips that these young people believe might be useful to anyone questioning their gender
This project was funded by the Department of Health's Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Advisory Group.

Please pass on all our thanks to the young people who worked so hard to produce it - they can be very proud of what they've achieved. Everyone I spoke to about the booklet was impressed; we can't wait to get it promoted far and wide into the places where it can help support young people and those involved with them." - Christine Burns, Chair of the Trans Work Stream from the Sexual Orientation and Gender Advisory Group to the Department of Health.
