    Social Economic study of the Transgender community


    We are carrying out this research project during 2014 and 2015. It will be used as anonymous data to help improve the lives and social outcomes for all Transgender people, and to give direct feed back to the authorities in the UK.

    In addition to offering face-to-face interviews, this online survey offers an opportunity to gather anonymous information about the social and economic experiences of transgender members of the UK's diverse communities. All interviews and surveys will be treated with complete discretion and any online data or face-to-face interview notes taken will be completely confidential.
