We're off down the pub for Pub Social Time. Come join us for fun & frolics. 19th July, the Blue Moon, 5pm onwards. We'll be outside. See you there!! The Blue Moon patio & bar are wheelchair-accessible but there is no accessible toilet. Let us know if you need help arranging/paying for travel.

hand-drawn graphic in orange and black reading "let's go to the fuckin pub! Yippee! Wahoo!! 19 July 5pm, the Blue Moon"

it can feel right now like little things don't make a difference. i have it on good authority that just ten of us giving a tenner a month would go a long way to making this possible as a regular thing. i'll donation match the first 3 of you who do a recurring £10 monthly. 🏳️‍⚧️ opencollective.com/tlc

Are you perhaps a cis person who thinks 'well, that's a lovely idea'? Perhaps you could chip in some quids to help keep events like this sustainable! Booking a whole pool so that trans folks can swim in peace costs a modest £3 per person, and we would love to be able to make it a regular booking!

A graphic in pink, purple and yellow with an image of a classical statue (the god Hermaphroditus/e) from waist up, playing with their wavy hair. Around them, the text for the event sits in a funky 70s-ish font. It says the time and date as given in the post, and "trans and queer life drawing - loads of models - tunes - pencils and things" with a star burst saying "wow its free!". The Trans Liberation Cambridge logo marks the top corner.A graphic with the same colour scheme and image. Text reads "book your space on the eventbrite! volunteer to model via the sign-up form! both are linked in our bio."

We're running a 🎟️FUNDRAISING RAFFLE🎟️ for two trans refugee organisations! You could win one of 19 incredible prizes donated by trans makers and our pals. Ticket proceeds to be split between Trans Ark and Refugee Trans Initiative, supporting trans refugees in South Sudan and Kenya respectively.

They're expensive to buy and mysterious to imagine - body forms are great fun and can be vital in getting your mental image right in your head, but how to overcome these hurdles? TLC have you covered! Come to our body form try 'n' share, and skip straight to the fun bit! 11th April, Lichfield Hall!

We don't talk about this much, because it is vitally important that our events are free to attend and we never ever want attendees to feel pressured to pay for anything they come along to. But TLC is entirely community funded, and you can chip in if you'd like to! opencollective.com/tlc

Friends, we currently have one Really Good Location to do clothes swaps in, and it would be really nice to have options. Any venue we use needs to be accessible by wheelchair and be close to a bus route. Clothes swaps are trickier though, because we also need parking, and space to try clothes on.

Do you wanna kick off 2026 by Doing Art? Of course you do my darlings. Trans and queer life drawing, for free, book a seat and come along. Cannot emphasise enough how irrelevant skill level is, you can literally have never held a pencil before in your life and still come and have a lovely time!

A halftoned image of a classical statue (the god Hermaphroditus/e) from waist up, in rich raspberry pink on a deep purple background. They play with their long wavy hair. Around them, the text for the event sits in a funky 70s-ish font in bright lemon yellow. It says the time and date as above, and "trans and queer life drawing - loads of models - tunes - pencils and things" and a star burst saying "wow its free!" at the bottom of the image.
