PCS Proud Transgender page

(Still under construction)

This web page is intended to hold links that all transgender people can use, and for news of the activities of PCS Proud in the area of transgender equality.

PCS Proud is the LGBT section of the PCS union. Its officers and national committee are democratically elected at its AGM from and by its members.

Full membership of Proud is open to all PCS members who self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT).

Associate membership is open to all PCS members who, though not themselves LGBT, support the aims and objectives of Proud.

The definition of "transgender" that we use is the widest one possible, and the one used by Press for Change.
