Queer Clinic CIC supports the unique health and wellbeing needs of queer, trans and gender non-conforming people.

‘Queer-ness’ for us means living beyond the binary, celebrating difference, striving for inclusivity and accessibility and “being… the self that is at odds with everything around it and that has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live.” (bell hooks)

We offer resources to help our community feel empowered, embodied and creative.

Upcoming Online Workshops

Meet our first facilitator, Keith (he/they)!

Keith (he/they) graduated in 2019 with a degree in Social Work and has spent most of his career in the third sector, supporting people’s wellbeing.

Are you:
- an LGBTQ+ care receiver, or a friend/family/support network of a LGBTQ+ person in a domiciliary care setting?
- a professional care provider?
- an LGBTQ+ adult in your 40s or older?

If so, this research may be relevant to you.

Harriet is "currently researching the experiences of older LGBTQ+ people (67+) with residential and domiciliary care settings in the UK. As part of this I am using online questionnaires and in-person interviews to talk to LGBTQ+ care receivers and their families, friends and support networks as well as professional care providers and middle-late aged LGBTQ+ adults (40s, 50s, 60s+) on their concerns, assumptions and fears about the future and the care sector in general.

This research focuses on the importance of identity recognition and sexual citizenship in LGBTQ+ people's later life. Concerns over having to go back into the closet are frequent as is fears of abuse, neglect or ignorance from staff who are not trained and not prepared to provide care for the specific needs of LGBTQ+ people. Dignity, respect, privacy and the ability to live authentically while getting the support they need are integral to LGBTQ+ care receivers mental, physical and emotional health to keep them from living as authentically as possible."

✨ Building Our Future: Hands-On Care for Our Community ✨

We believe in the power of touch, affirmation, and embodied healing. As Queer Clinic steps into its exciting next chapter with dedicated in-person space, we're inviting you to help us lay the foundations for profound care.

Our mission is to offer accessible, affirming hands-on therapies – from massage to bodywork – for every queer body. To do this, we need to equip our new space with high-quality, comfortable treatment tables.

We have a unique opportunity to acquire excellent tables from a local clinic at a significant discount (just £200 each!), but as a small charity, securing several is a collective effort.

This isn't just about tables; it's about:

💫 Creating Safe Spaces: Where queer bodies feel truly seen and cared for.

💫 Expanding Access: Offering vital physical therapies that complement mental and sexual health support.

💫 Empowering Healing: Providing tools for our practitioners to deliver the best possible care.

How You Can Help Co-Create Our Healing Hub:

💫 Become a Sponsor: Contribute towards the purchase of a table (or part of one!). Every pound makes a direct impact on our capacity to serve.

💫 Donate a Table: If you have a professional-grade massage table in excellent condition you'd like to pass on, please reach out!

Join us in building a truly holistic and inclusive healing environment. Your support directly translates into tangible care for our community.

Support Our Vision Here: linktr.ee/queer.clinic

DM us if you have a table to offer!

📢 CALLING ALL QUEER CLINIC SUPPORTERS: WE NEED YOUR HELP! 📢

Your Queer Clinic needs YOU to help us bring in-person care to life in our new space!

As we prepare for the next exciting iteration of Queer Clinic, we have a vital mission: acquiring massage tables for hands-on, affirming treatments. Our wonderful friend Ana, owner of the closing Clinic Silk, is offering us their high-quality tables at a huge discount – but it's still a big ask for our small charity.

Here's how you can help us create a comfortable, accessible space for our community:

1. Donate a Table: Do you have a good quality, gently used massage table you no longer need? Could you donate it, or sell it to us for a very low price? We'd be incredibly grateful!

2. Fund a Table: Could you contribute towards buying one of Ana's excellent tables? Every single donation, big or small, gets us closer to our goal!

These tables are essential for us to provide vital therapies and support in a safe, affirming environment. Let's make this happen together!

✨✨✨How to Get Involved: ✨✨✨

🟣 To donate a table or offer one cheaply: Please DM us directly!
🟣 To donate funds: https://linktr.ee/queer.clinic

Let's build this new Queer Clinic space, one table at a time! Thank you for your incredible generosity and support.

☁️ MindOut for the Winter Blues: Seasonal SAD in the Queer Community 🍂

As the nights draw in, many in our community feel the weight of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), often worsened by minority stress and family isolation during the holidays. It's more than "winter blues."

Here's Your Self-Care Plan:

1. Seek Sunlight: Get outside for a short walk every day during peak daylight hours. Even on a cloudy day, the light exposure helps regulate your mood. Consider a SAD lamp if your symptoms are severe (speak to your GP first!).

2. Connect with MindOut: Our local LGBTQ+ mental health charity is there for you:

Online Support Chat: Anonymous, confidential, and run by LGBTQ+ volunteers.

Low-Cost Counselling: Applications plan to re-open November 1st after a temporary pause - set a reminder now!

3. Peer Power: Don't isolate. Reach out to local, affirming groups like Brighton & Hove Switchboard's social prescribing service or one of the many community groups (The Clare Project, Navigate, Radical Rhizomes).

You are not alone in this winter.

🌈 Brighton Parents: New 2025 Childcare Funding Alert! 🏳️‍⚧️

The expanded government childcare rollout is confusing, especially for queer and non-traditional families in Brighton. Don't miss out on the 30 hours for children aged 9 months+.

The Key Local Tip: Power of 'Stretched' Hours
The funding is 1,140 hours per year. Most Brighton providers offer to "Stretch" this. Instead of 30 hours for 38 term-time weeks, you get consistent, year-round cover (e.g., 22 hours over 52 weeks). ACTION: Ask your provider about their stretched offer to avoid huge holiday bills!

How to Apply (Crucial Check):

GOV.UK Only: Apply via the Government Gateway portal (search "Childcare Choices"). You get an 11-digit eligibility code.

Income Rule: You and your partner (if you have one) must both earn the equivalent of 16 hours at minimum wage.

Co-Parents: If separated, only one parent can claim for the child - coordinate your application!

Re-confirm: You must re-confirm your eligibility every three months. Set a reminder now!

We’re here to help the queer community navigate these hurdles.

📢 THIS IS WHAT INCLUSIVE HEALTHCARE LOOKS LIKE! 💖

We are celebrating a huge win for affirming care in the UK! Over 800 trans men and non-binary people with a cervix have now 'opted in' to cervical screening since the NHS implemented system changes to make invitations possible.

For too long, administrative barriers and non-affirming systems prevented access to this life-saving, routine care. This step is proof that when systems adapt to include, rather than exclude, the health of our community improves.

Your health matters. Your identity is valid.

Routine screenings are vital for everyone with a cervix. If you have any questions about accessing sex-specific screening, speaking to your GP, or need support with finding affirming care, please reach out to our clinic.

Let's keep working for an NHS that works for all of us.

A Basic Element of Care: Pronouns.

We ask all our clients for their pronouns (and use them!) because it's non-negotiable for affirming care. If you're finding it tricky to navigate these conversations in other settings, remember:
👉 You have the right to correct someone.
👉 You have the right to withhold that information.
👉 You deserve to be treated with respect.

At Queer Clinic, it's never an issue.

Correction and Important Update

We need to issue an important update regarding our recent post featuring an educational poster (Original Post URL: https://www.instagram.com/p/DOvKeLREz7l/).

The central claim of that post - that the image was an educational resource used by King's College Hospital - is entirely false. The poster is an educational prop created by a company called The Educated Birth, but the statement connecting it to King’s College Hospital is misinformation.

We regret amplifying this inaccurate claim. We recognise that such false statements are often intentionally created as propaganda to mislead and cause harm, particularly to trans people. We are committed to resisting the spread of such material and deeply regret the oversight in sharing it.

A huge thank you to @parentingqueer for helping to bring this issue to the community's attention via their own post, and to @theeducatedbirth for creating such fantastic resources in the first place.

"hi there my names Bodhi and I’m a trans woman, I’ve been on hrt now for almost a year and have my first feminising procedure booked (feminising hairline/transplant). This will be another step closer in giving me the confidence to be able to live that little bit easier and navigate an almost “normal” everyday life and the first of many procedure's I need. I have never asked for any sort of financial help and it pains me to do something like this but anything will really make things that little bit easier, I’m saving every penny I can, selling what I don’t need so I can do what I need to look on the outside who I feel on the inside.

thankyou for your kindness and support.

Group Facilitators: Lead monthly support groups, providing a safe and inclusive environment for peers. Training is provided, and you'll need 12+ months of sobriety.

If you're part of the Trans+ sober community, are 18 or over, and are reliable, they would love to hear from you.

Interested in applying? Please send a brief introduction to info@transsober.org that includes your name, pronouns, which role you're interested in, and a little about why you'd like to get involved.

It would be funny if it wasn't so fucking terrifying. When politicians like Wes Streeting talk about banning folk from all toilets simply for being trans, the question is no longer a rhetorical one. Literally, where do we go?

This rhetoric is not about safety or biology. It is about a deliberate and cruel political strategy to dehumanise trans people and legislate them out of public life. If your bodily functions are legislated out of public life, YOU are legislated out of public life.

Your anger is valid. Your frustration is valid. Your existence is not a punchline or a problem.

We stand in unyielding solidarity with every trans person who is being targeted by this hate. Your right to exist safely and with dignity is non-negotiable.

The term 'lavender marriage' is trending right now, but do you know its history? For decades, queer people faced imprisonment and violence if they were found out, so many entered into marriages with a person of the opposite sex for safety. While today some are reclaiming it for platonic partnerships, it's important to remember this history of survival and the bravery that came with it. It reminds us why the fight for our rights is far from over.

Which historical queer figures or moments do you think we should know more about? Share your answers in the comments!

For decades, queer people faced imprisonment and violence if they were found out, so many entered into marriages with a person of the opposite sex for safety. While today some are reclaiming it for platonic partnerships, it's important to remember this history of survival and the bravery that came with it. It reminds us why the fight for our rights is far from over.

Which historical queer figures or moments do you think we should know more about? Share your answers in the comments!

We know things can feel heavy. So, let's take a moment to celebrate the media that brings us joy, makes us feel seen, and reminds us of our community's beauty and strength.

What piece of queer art - a film, a book, a podcast, or a show - has been your source of comfort or inspiration recently?

Share your favourites in the comments below! Because finding and sharing queer joy is a powerful act of care.

We'll start: We've been loving the representation in The Traitors UK and the new season of Bad Sisters for a dose of queer reality and solidarity.

QC Queer Quick Tip 💛

If you can, step outside right now - onto the stones of Brighton beach or wherever you are.

For five minutes, notice:
• a sound you hear
• how your feet/legs feel under you
• how your belly moves with your breath

Let it anchor you. Small shift, big feeling. 🌿

This incredible poster reminds us that there's no single face of pregnancy. People of all genders can be pregnant, and their experiences are just as valid and deserving of care.

At The Queer Clinic, our mission is the wellbeing of every member of the LGBTQIA+ community. That's why we celebrate images like this: Because seeing yourself represented in healthcare is a powerful form of validation. It’s a simple but vital step towards feeling seen and respected.

In a world where some people still push back against this kind of inclusion, we want to be clear: our rights aren't a zero-sum game. The idea that "rights are a pie" and giving a piece to one person takes it away from another is simply false.

True equality means ensuring everyone has access to the care they need, just as they are.

The fascist "Unite the Kingdom" march through the streets of London this past weekend was an utterly terrifying display of hate.

To witness prominent TERFs and Gender Critical voices marching alongside outright fascists, targeting immigrant, POC, and otherwise marginalised groups like our own LGBTQIA+ community; is a profound and sickening escalation.

We understand the deep fear, anger, and exhaustion many of you are feeling. This wasn't just a protest; it was a brazen threat.

At Queer Clinic, our message is unequivocal: We see you. We stand with you. We will defend you.

Your existence is not up for debate. Your safety is paramount. We are dedicated to creating spaces where you can be truly safe and affirmed. Lean on your community, protect your peace, and know that your anger is valid, and your resilience is our strength.

If you need support or just a space to connect, please reach out. We are here.

Midweek reset 💛

Place your hands on your lower belly. Take a slow breath in - notice your belly rise - and breathe out, letting it fall. Use that natural rise and fall to guide gentle, clockwise circular movements.

Your breath isn’t just for relaxation - it’s your body’s own rhythm. Your lungs may be doing the bulk of the work, but they need the support of all the surrounding structures to perform effectively. Ensure you are expanding in all directions when you breathe - ribs out to the sides, belly out and down.

Let your breath lead the massage, helping you release tension and reconnect with yourself. 🌿

Even 1–2 minutes of this can make a difference. No pressure, no goal - just you and your body.

If you try it, drop a 💛 below - we love hearing how our community reconnects midweek!

🍂 Turning Inward This Autumn 🍂

As the days get shorter and the world slows down, it’s the perfect time to turn inward and check in with yourself. Autumn invites reflection, rest, and reconnecting with the body - especially for queer and trans folks whose experiences of embodiment often go overlooked.

Our Whole Body Relaxation & Non-Gendered Wombspace Connection Meditation is designed to guide you into gentle awareness and connection with your body - wherever you are, whoever you are. It’s a space to release tension, honour your body, and simply be.

🌈 Accessible, affirming, and entirely for you - find this meditation and more in our Queer Clinic Workshop Library, your always-available queer wellbeing resource. Access it via the link in our bio, or by going to queerclinic.co.uk

Take a moment. Turn inward. Breathe. You deserve it.

This week has shown us the contradictions of Britain in 2025.

👉 Armed police arrest Graham Linehan over posts inciting hate against trans people, while ministers cry ‘free speech’ when that hate is challenged.

👉 Edinburgh schools are forced to ban trans pupils from toilets that align with their identity, because the Supreme Court says ‘woman’ is a term only they can define in a very narrow understanding of "biology".

👉 And yet, more than 100,000 people took to the streets for London Trans+ Pride - the biggest in the world - demanding dignity, safety, and the right to exist.

💥 The message is clear: our lives are not political footballs. Whether hate is excused as comedy, or cruelty is disguised as ‘clarity,’ the impact lands on queer and trans bodies.

🧠 Rights aren’t guaranteed just because a so-called ‘left’ government is in power. They’re fought for. Every. Single. Day.

✊ Resist. Organise. Speak up. Stand with trans kids. Stand with our communities. Because we’re not going anywhere.

#KeirStarmer's recent #Labour appointments and policies are a stark reminder: queer liberation isn’t guaranteed by party labels. Endorsing the Supreme Court ruling that limits 'woman' to 'biological sex', and appointing individuals tied to groups like Sex Matters, shows whose rights are being sidelined. We must resist, organise, and hold all those in power accountable - no matter their politics.

Why It Matters:

✊Legal Precedent: The ruling threatens trans rights and access to single-sex spaces.

✊Policy Impact: Government endorsement risks further marginalisation.

✊Community Impact: The EHRC and other appointments signal rising barriers for trans people.

👀Stay vigilant. Support grassroots LGBTQ+ organisations (hello!). Engage with local representatives. Trans rights are human rights: ALWAYS.

🏳️‍🌈 Pride banners may fly high, but beneath the rainbow glitter the reality is brutal: the UK has dropped to 16th place in Europe for LGBTQ+ rights. 🏳️‍⚧️

We’re told we should be grateful for parades and corporate allyship, but when trans healthcare is under siege, hate crimes are climbing, and queer asylum seekers are dehumanised — celebration without resistance becomes complacency.

Pride began as protest. That hasn’t changed. Visibility isn’t victory. Until safety, dignity, and equality are guaranteed for every queer person, we cannot afford to be lulled into comfort by the noise of modern pride.

🌈 Resist. Persist. Exist.

You might have seen local headlines about trans healthcare and hormone prescribing in Brighton & Sussex this week.

If you’re feeling worried, lost, or unsure what it means for you or your loved ones, you’re not alone. These stories can be confusing, and sometimes even frightening.

Here are some safe and affirming places to start if you need support:
🌈 Local LGBTQ+ switchboard or helpline
🌈 Brighton-based advocacy/orgs e.g. Clare Project, MindOut
🌈 Queer Clinic workshops + community care spaces

We don’t offer medical services, but we do hold space for community, wellbeing, and queer-specific care.

🌈 After Pride: Rest + Resist 🌈

Pride isn’t just a party - it’s a protest. From Stonewall to Trans Pride Brighton, Manchester Pride, and Carnival today: every march, every chant, every dance is a demand for our right to exist and to thrive.

Queer joy matters. It reminds us what we’re fighting for. But the fight itself isn’t over.

💤 Rest when you need.
✊ Resist where you can.

Keep marching, keep writing, keep funding, keep showing up.
And if all you can do today is breathe: That too is resistance.

We see you. We’re proud of you.

This week, the UK’s biggest LGBTQ+ literary prize, the Polari Prize, was paused after a wave of trans authors and allies pulled out in protest.

Why? Because trans voices matter.
When a prize that’s meant to celebrate queer creativity sidelines or harms our trans and nonbinary community, it loses its meaning.

Queer art is only powerful when it includes all of us. 🌈

Let’s keep amplifying trans and nonbinary writers, artists, and storytellers - their work is not just vital, it’s the beating heart of our community.

💬 Have you got a trans or nonbinary author whose work has meant a lot to you? Drop their name below so we can build a reading list together.

Some headlines hit heavy, and this week is no exception.

In the UK, we’re seeing the real-world fallout from April’s “biological sex” ruling, with gender-nonconforming women - including cis lesbians - reporting more confrontations in public toilets. The culture sector’s also feeling the tension, with a free-speech group threatening legal action against museums using trans-inclusive guidance.

But it’s not all storm clouds — there’s real hope on the horizon. The World Health Organization has just backed a new PrEP option, lenacapavir, given as an injection only twice a year. It’s already approved in the US, and a once-monthly pill is moving into late-stage trials. These tools could transform HIV prevention and access in our communities.

Alongside the news, we’re sharing helplines and resources (see last slide), because headlines should come with hope, not just worry. Save this post, share it with someone you care about, and remember: community care is how we get through, together. 🧡

Chosen family looks different - and that's beautiful.
From Ace’s Place, NYC’s first publicly funded trans-inclusive shelter offering care and stability; to a queer woman who donated her eggs and a friend who gestated the child, love and care take many forms.

These stories remind us that community care isn’t just warmth, it can be structure, courage, and chosen love. You belong. You are seen.

✨ Why Queer Bodies Can Hold Tension Differently (And Why That’s Okay) ✨

Living in a world that isn’t always safe changes how our bodies feel.
It’s not “just stress” — it’s the physical imprint of navigating life in a society that doesn’t always embrace us.

💜 Microaggressions & discrimination can keep us in constant “guarded mode.”
💙 Dysphoria & body safety can make body awareness more complicated.
💚 Safe spaces & affirming touch can help us release tension we’ve carried for years.

If you’ve ever been told you’re “too tense” or wondered why your body feels wound so tight — please know it’s not a flaw. It’s survival.
And you deserve spaces that help you soften, even if just for a little while. 🌈💆‍♀️

⚠️ TW: Transphobia, harassment
🗣️ A trans woman was working in her job at M&S. She politely asked if a customer needed help. The customer complained. The media ran with it. Now that employee is being harassed across the internet.

This is what transphobia looks like.
This is what transmisogyny looks like.
This is what happens when society treats trans people as a threat, even when they’re doing nothing more than existing in public, or doing their job.

What we’re seeing right now isn’t a question of “debate” or “fairness.” It’s the ongoing public harassment of a trans woman, inflamed by press coverage and gleefully amplified by anti-trans commentators, including JK Rowling.

The mother’s complaint described the worker as “a man,” expressed disgust that she was near her daughter, and implied predatory intent — all because she was visible. This is not discomfort. This is harassment. This is dehumanisation.

💬 At Queer Clinic, we will never treat you like a problem to be solved.
You do not need to defend your identity.
You do not need to shrink or mask or pass.
You deserve safety - not just tolerance - but belonging.

We stand with all trans people who are just trying to live, work, and be. We see you. You are not alone.

🌈 Gender-affirming beauty and bodywork is more than pampering — it’s resistance, it's healing, it’s homecoming.

This week, a stylist in Portland went viral for offering gender-affirming haircuts — not just because of the cuts, but because of how consensual, collaborative, and safe the whole experience was. Every detail, from how they asked permission before touching someone’s hair to how they honoured pronouns and personal history, helped create a space where trans and queer clients could finally let their guard down.

💆‍♀️💬 At Queer Clinic, we see that same power every time someone lies down on the massage table and says, “I’ve never felt this safe in a treatment room before.”

Whether it’s a haircut, a facial, or a massage — when your care is queer-led and affirming, it becomes something else entirely:
✨ A place to reclaim your body
✨ A place to exhale
✨ A place to be witnessed and respected, not ‘fixed’

📍 Our practitioner base is queer.
👐 We offer trauma-informed, consent-based care where you’re always in charge.

Over 100,000 people marched at London Trans+ Pride last weekend.
The biggest trans-led protest march in the world. A joyful, defiant, unapologetic force of queer love and rage.

Just two days later, Pixie Polite — a beloved Drag Race UK queen — was punched in the head in a hate crime in Tesco. It was the fourth anti-queer incident she faced in a month.

These two events are not separate.
Pride is not a party. It’s a protest. A prayer. A shield. A scream.

We gather in joy because our lives are still threatened.
We celebrate queer existence because the world still tells us we shouldn’t.

Pride is a fight for the right to live without fear.

🌈 Keep marching.
💔 Keep speaking out.
🗣️ Keep holding each other safe.

🧵 Today in UK trans rights:
A trans NHS doctor’s safety was put on trial in the Sandie Peggie tribunal. A cis nurse was cleared - while anti-trans figures and media outlets capitalise on the spectacle.

This isn’t just one workplace - it’s another moment where trans bodies are questioned, public money is used to entertain transphobic narratives, and our rights hinge on public opinion.

But community is our lifeline. At Queer Clinic, we offer:

🌟Gentle support & peer care
🌟Affirming online workshops
🌟Space to land when systems fail

🟣 We stand with trans clinicians, trans patients, trans joy.

📣 “New Section 28”? Don’t Let Them Get Away With It.

🚨 A “new Section 28” is unfolding under Labour. 🚨
Not in theory. Not in threat. In policy.

A year into Starmer’s government, we’re seeing what we feared: a Labour leadership that panders to right-wing media pressure, throwing trans lives under the bus and quietly gutting inclusive LGBTQIA+ education — all under the guise of “protecting children.”

Sound familiar?

This is the playbook of Section 28 all over again:
🚫 Silencing queer and trans voices in schools
🚫 Framing inclusion as “ideology”
🚫 Stigmatising young people for asking questions
🚫 Treating queer existence as unsafe, inappropriate, or optional

We’ve been here before. And we refuse to let history repeat itself quietly.

At Queer Clinic, we’re here for every person whose mental health, safety, and joy is being put at risk by this wave of institutional neglect.
🧡 We run low-cost, queer-led, body-affirming workshops
🧡 We create online spaces where no one has to ask permission to exist
🧡 We stand for community, education, and joy in the face of erasure

💬 Whether you’re reeling from the news, furious at the silence, or searching for support — we’re here.
This moment demands resistance, and it demands care. You are not alone.

🌈 Trans Pride Brighton is Today — And So Are We

Today we march.
Tomorrow we rest.
And every day after, we’re still here.
💗💙🤍

At Queer Clinic, we see Trans Pride as more than a day. It’s a rhythm we move to all year long. It’s in the free and low-cost workshops, the trauma-informed bodywork, the quiet check-ins, the rage-fuelled myth-busting, and the deep care we offer — especially to those who can’t show up on the streets today.

🌈 For the trans folks holding placards high: we see you.
🌈 For the ones lying low, flinching from the noise: we honour you.
🌈 For the ones locked out by distance, disability, fear or funds: we hold space for you.

Whether you’re screaming in joy or staying in bed — you are Trans Pride Brighton.
And we’re here to catch you when the adrenaline wears off.

🌊✨ Two Days to Go: Trans Pride Brighton Is Nearly Here! ✨🌊

Trans Pride Brighton is just around the corner — and we’re counting down the days until the streets are filled with trans joy, community resistance, handmade signs, placards, banners, glitter, megaphones, mobility aids, marching boots, beach blankets, and chosen family.

This isn’t your average Pride.
This is the first and biggest Trans Pride in Europe.
Born out of community organising, run by volunteers, and held in a city with a rich trans history — Trans Pride Brighton is protest, celebration, survival, and joy all at once.

Here at Queer Clinic, we know that trans wellness is community wellness.
We see how the current climate is impacting our trans siblings — from the endless media attacks to barriers in healthcare access — and we also see the power in coming together like this.

Pride isn’t just for the confident, loud or visible — it’s for all of us.
For the ones marching and the ones who can’t.
For the ones still finding their words.
For the ones who’ve been holding this fight for decades.
And for every single trans person still surviving, still existing, still here.

💙 Will you be there this weekend? What are you hoping to see, feel, or experience at Trans Pride Brighton this year?

Happy International Non-Binary People’s Day!
💛🤍💜🖤

Today we celebrate the expansiveness, brilliance, and beauty of non-binary people—those who live beyond or outside the binary boxes of “man” or “woman,” in all the infinite ways that shows up.

Non-binary people are not new.
🌍 Cultures around the world have long honoured more-than-two-genders—this isn’t a “modern invention” or a “trend.”
👥 NB folks are carers, leaders, artists, parents, scientists, witches, lovers, troublemakers, visionaries—and so much more.

At Queer Clinic, we’re proud to be shaped by non-binary directors, practitioners, and community members. We know that navigating a binary world in a non-binary body can be exhausting. You deserve rest. You deserve safety. You deserve joy. And we love you exactly as you are.

✨ You don’t need to look or sound or dress a certain way to be valid.
✨ You don’t need to be “out” to be real.
✨ You don’t need to explain yourself to be worthy of care.

Whether you’re proudly visible or quietly figuring it out—there’s room for you here. Always.

💛 Happy Non-Binary People’s Day from all of us at Queer Clinic 💛

What does self-care really mean to you?
Not the bubble bath version. The REAL version.

Is it:
🛏 Staying in bed and not feeling guilty?
🧾 Doing the admin your brain usually avoids?
❤ Feeling your feelings without judging them?
📓 Journaling through the mess?
💆🏽‍♀️ Booking a massage because your body is screaming? (Heyo! Remember you can receive VERY accessibly priced bodywork through Queer Clinic too - all the links are in our bio!)

We’re building a Queer Clinic zine full of your real-life, grounded, brilliant, weird, gentle, practical self-care strategies. Because healing doesn’t look the same for all of us.

💌 Drop a comment or DM us to share yours (anonymously if you’d like)
🧷 We’ll include your voice in the zine with love, care, and consent
📥 Zine will be digital, and community-made

Because self-care isn’t one-size-fits-all.
It’s radical. It’s queer. It’s what keeps us going.
