Press for Change is a lobbying and legal support organisation for trans people in the UK.

Formed in 1992, the organisation campaigns to achieve equality and human rights for all trans people in the United Kingdom, through legislation and social change. It provides legal advice, training and consultancy for employers and organisations as well as undertaking commissioned research.

In 2009, Press For Change was awarded funding by the Equality and Human Rights Commission to develop the TransEquality project, providing professional legal support to trans people in key areas of the law, as well as advice to businesses and other non-profit organisations.

Press for Change works closely with the Scottish Transgender Alliance, Transgender Europe, government departments and agencies including the Gender Recognition Panel, and numerous support organisations for trans and gender variant people in the UK.
