Trans Plus Health Survey Online

The Trans Plus Health Survey is part of a community-based research project, being delivered by the Diversity Trust, and funded by our Local Healthwatch.

Trans Health Matters

For the past five years the Diversity Trust has been researching the health needs of LGBT+ people and has found evidence to support national findings on Trans experiences. To continue this work we are please to announce that we are working with the Local Healthwatch across Bath & North East Somerset, Bristol, North Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire to identify the specific needs of local Trans people.

LGBT+ Health Research Report

We have launched our latest LGBT+ health research report. The report called ‘Evidence for Change’ is published in partnership with the local Healthwatch.
