TransActual UK's Trans Lives Survey
This study aims to capture how transgender people in the UK feel on a variety of topics including access to ID documents, healthcare and experinces of transphobia. This survey builds on an earlier survey conducted by TransActual in 2021 and will update the data collected in this original survey, allowing us to see changes. We also aim to expand on the orginal survey gaining deeper insights into some of the areas. The results will be published by TransActual on their website and a link will be on their social media channels. This research will allow TransActual as well as trans charities and allies to advocate for our community with up-to-date research on topics that affect us.

LGBTQ+ Family Project
This survey aims to provide an understanding of the different forms of family practiced by LGBTQ+ people, and how these families experience representation and inequity in public services. It is part of a wider study collecting knowledge on LGBTQ+ families and the care they provide, including towards the end of life. The survey is open to all over 18s living in England, Wales or Scotland who identify as LGBTQ+. This research aims to improve understandings of diverse family structures to both address these inequities and to give visibility to LGBTQ+ ways of doing family. To do this, we want to get an idea of the breadth of diverse ways in which our community practice family, basically: who is family, where is family and what is family.
The researcher is Polly Maxwell, currently completing a PhD in Social Policy at the University of Bath. Their research takes an affirmative approach to the lives and experiences of LGBTQ+ people. The researcher self-identifies as a queer social researcher, doing research driven from the lived experience of grieving their late partner and navigating life as an overall queer human.
