The Rainbow Network is getting active this March and taking action to change the lives of young trans people across the UK!
We are trekking up Pen-Y-Fan and completing 60 miles this month, for one very important reason. To help ensure trans young people and their families can continue to access the emotional, informative and peer-to-peer support they deserve.
Trans youth across the UK are greatly at risk of transphobic legislation and damaging 'healthcare', that worsens stigma and inequalities, on top of issues of safety and inclusion. 45% of trans young people in the UK have attempted suicide, every single life is precious. It is our job to fight to protect our community and let trans youth grow up with love, support and the right to be safe.
Together we can make a change, and support Mermaids in the fantastic work they do. Find out more about Mermaids below!
Mermaids say: Our amazing supporters are the reason we’re able to keep helping the trans community, year after year. So this March, we’re asking you to get active with your fundraising by taking on Miles for Mermaids.
