Consultation

TMW can offer telephone support or in-person consultation on programmes or press features involving trans or intersex issues. We can help you find the right way to handle challenging stories and we can offer insights that will help make your work more authentic.

Training

TMW can provide bespoke training in your workplace, geared to the needs to your employees. Our basic awareness training provides a solid grounding in trans and intersex issues and is ideal for workplaces where a fast turnover of material makes it difficult to research every item in depth. It will help you recognise potential problems and identify solutions.

We have a range of training materials specially designed for particular sectors. Contact us to find out more.
