Trans Resource and Empowerment Centre

The Trans Resource and Empowerment Centre (TREC) is based in central Manchester and provides a wide range of programming and empowerment activities for the Trans community in a safe and accessible space, with activities centred on themes of Body and Health, Policy and Law, Creativity and Well-Being, Culture and Community, Safety, and Networking.

The centre was launched in November 2009.

TREC sessions run monthly, normally at the Lesbian and Gay Foundation.

Between November 2009 and July 2011, TREC piloted a community resource, featuring a range of keynote speeches, presentations, workshops and group activities.
