Welcome to the Clare Project
The Clare Project aims to provide a safe and confidential place for people to explore issues surrounding their Gender identity. Whilst the group is mainly attended by transgender, transsexual and Gender Dysphoric people, we have deliberately aimed to be all-inclusive as we recognize the complexities surrounding the issue of Gender Identity.
We welcome all people who wish to join us while we are all on our own personal journeys of discovery.
Weekly Drop-In
New Drop-In Times
We run a weekly drop in at which everyone is welcome for an informal chat, tea and biscuits.
Due to the Clare Project running from 2:30pm to 5:30pm on a Tuesday, we have found that this clashes with work, college and some mental health services, which prevents some people from being able to come to our Drop In, and benefiting from our service(s).
Running at this time also forces people who are not always ready to tell work or college about why they have to leave early on a Tuesday, which causes unnecessary problems and stress for them within their working environment as well as their personal life.
We have therefore changed the time for the first Tuesday of the month to 4pm - 7pm, after which we will be heading towards our monthly Posh Nosh dinner. Please check the events page for details. On all other Tuesdays, opening times will remain as usual from 2.30pm - 5.30pm.

Creating Awareness
One of the aims of the Clare Project is to create awareness in the local community sector for trans issues. Therefore we work in close co-operation with various organisations whilst retaining our independence.
The Clare Project is the voice of people with gender issues when it comes to determining the needs of trans people. Long-term changes are necessary to society in order to ensure that that everyone can live freely in their chosen gender without their rights being affected.
