Comic Relief - Loving me! Transgender online support services for victims of domestic abuse
£83,958	08/09/2021 6	Whilst there are a handful of domestic abuse services across England that provide specialist support for the LGBT+ community, there are no specific services that provide support to the trans and non ....more Whilst there are a handful of domestic abuse services across England that provide specialist support for the LGBT+ community, there are no specific services that provide support to the trans and non binary communities. The trans and non binary community are very active online, with many social and support groups being set up on Facebook, with the predominant aim of providing identify and transition support. The trans community is not as many like to think a homogenous group and within it are diverse communities of people with differing and intersectional needs and issues. Trans Masculine social support groups are different to Trans Feminine or Non Binary groups. As a queer, non binary identifying human who has worked in the domestic abuse sector for over 25 years, I have been able to identify some key trends. (learning from recent consultation with the trans community). 1. The domestic abuse specialist sector does not cater specifically for the trans communities (i.e single sex provision policies) 2. The trans community have very little / no trust in the domestic abuse sector, largely down to the political climate around gender politics that currently exists. 3. Many trans people associate DA organisations as TERFs (Trans Exclusionary Feminists) when in reality it is the opposite, many DA services are open to supporting the trans community and are Trans Inclusive. 4. Domestic Abuse is prevalent in trans relationships, there is some research that indicates that trans women are more vulnerable to male perpetration of violence. There is a huge need to provide awareness and support to the trans community and as the largest platform for us is the internet and social media it makes sense that any service should be Digital. Improving our Digital capacity would have enormous benefits for trans / non binary people who are suffering from abuse. In order to achieve this, this funding would enable us to purchase hardware and software and pay for staff members to implement the project over the next five months.
