Trans Pride Manchester
Trans Pride Manchester was established in 2023 in the face of lacking local support for the trans community. It was formed to uplift, fight with, connect, and stand beside the trans people of Manchester and its surrounding areas, no matter what that transness looks like or the journies they take. TPM does not do this alone and acts alongside a thriving community of activists and groups around Manchester looking to support and protect our most vulnerable. TPM today organises an annual march, often with workshops, an open mic, and panel events on the same day, as well as events throughout the year like social gatherings, art projects, zines and more. Trans Pride Manchester wishes to stand amongst its folk, Trans Pride Manchester wishes you well.
