We’re running a survey until autumn 2023 that asks about trans and/or nonbinary experiences related to work, housing, and wellbeing.
The Trans Learning Partnership (TLP) comprises Gendered Intelligence, LGBT Foundation, Mermaids, and Spectra. All our staff are trans.
If you take it, you could win £200, or one of 10 prizes of £20. Your answers will be anonymised. You’ll also have a chance to take part in other paid opportunities we’re offering.
Trans and/or nonbinary communities face a lot of hidden barriers. This Trans day of Visibility, let’s make them visible. Let’s make our joy visible, too.
More information
Who is eligible?
● Are you trans and/or nonbinary?
● Do you live in the UK?
● Are you 18 or over?
If so, the Trans Learning Partnership wants to invite you to take part in trans-led research!
What’s Involved:
● You’ll need to complete a survey. This should take no more than 30 minutes of your time and you’ll have the opportunity to be entered into a prize draw. The prizes are one prize of £200 and 10 prizes of £20.
● Optional: offer to be interviewed or take part in a focus group. We want to invite a smaller group of people to talk to us about their experiences of housing (1 on 1) or on social assets like community connections, and accessibility of services. We’ll be inviting a diverse range of participants. If participating, you’ll be compensated for your time.
● Optional: we’re recruiting community researchers! We’ll be offering training on running interviews, focus groups and other research methods to a small group of survey respondents. You’ll be offered training and compensated for your time.
Please, no, not another survey!
Although surveys are a useful way to gather certain types of information, they can be very tiring. If badly designed, they can even cause further distress. Our core team at the TLP is entirely trans, with intersections of marginalised racial experience, neurodivergence, and disability represented on our staff. These intersections are also represented on our governing boards and advisory groups, which are majority trans. We hope you’ll take this into consideration when deciding whether to participate. The survey will be live at https://form.jotform.com/230738320311040.
If you have any questions, or need the survey in an alternative format, please contact us at survey@the-tlp.org.uk. The TLP is funded by Trust for London, Esmée Fairbairn, and City Bridge Trust.
