Diversity Training and Advisory

Diversity Training and Advisory, or DTA for short, is the brainchild of Delia Johnston, Zoe Evans and Amanda Nicolson who realised that although there are many organisations offering diversity and equality packages, none seem to tackle LGBT issues, specifically Transgender and HIV/AIDS.

New Trans+ Helpline

The south west region of the Charity Mind is opening a confidential helpline to support those who identify as Trans, their families and friends. From Friday 10th February 2017 the service will be available on Mondays and Fridays 8pm – Midnight. The call-handlers (many of whom are trans) have been extensively trained and will ensure it is a safe place to talk. If you, or someone you know, is in distress it can make a real difference to talk to someone about how you feel. You will be able to talk anonymously in complete confidence. If you need someone to talk to call the Trans + Mindline: 0300 330 5468
