What else can I do to support NION Women and our trans siblings?

With over 90,000 signatures and counting, we share simple ways to keep the momentum going, from spreading the word and using our resources to supporting trans+ communities directly and joining us at upcoming events. Every action, big or small, helps build a more inclusive future.

What else can I do to support NION Women and our trans siblings?

We are so grateful to each and every woman who has signed our open letter, as well as each and every person who has shared. Thanks to your amazing efforts, we now have over 90,000 signatures and are zooming towards our next goal of 100,000. 

Each new signature builds the evidence base that women’s and trans+ rights are not in conflict, and that many, many cisgender women support trans inclusion. 

Some of our supporters have recently asked, “what else can I do to help?”  We hugely appreciate all the support we receive, no matter how big or small, quiet or loud. If you have already signed our letter, but have room to do more, here are some ideas…

How you can help NION Women grow:

  1. Most importantly, Continue to share the letter: Encourage cisgender women in the UK to sign. Ask your family members, friends, and colleagues. Even one additional signature can make a difference.
  2. Follow us on social media: Like, comment, and share our posts – this really helps boost our visibility online. You can find us on Bluesky, FaceBook, Instagram and LinkedIn.
  3. Sign up to our newsletter (and ask your friends to sign up too!): This allows us to keep you up-to-date with our work, and share further opportunities to get involved.
  4. We now have an option to donate to NION Women: Funds we receive will be used to cover our basic running and outreach costs. Any additional funds will be donated to a trans charity supporting the trans community directly.
  5. Stay visible: Every time you share, comment, or speak up, you remind another woman that she’s not alone in supporting trans inclusion.

Some resources you can use:

  1. Visit the downloads section on our website for ready-made social media posts, placards for events and downloadable posters to display anywhere like-minded women might see them. We also have details of how you can get your own NION Women T-shirt printed! (Click the folder / file, then select “Download” from the “File” menu on your desktop.)
  2. If you use any of our assets, please do snap a photo of yourself using (or wearing!) them. Share on social media and tag @NIONWomen.

Some ways to support the trans+ community directly:

  1. Support UK businesses that have stood firm against trans exclusion: Over 650 businesses have signed an open letter to the government in support of trans inclusion. Maybe there’s one in your local area! 
  2. Donate to support trans rights: There are many excellent charities and organisations doing amazing work for trans rights – choose whichever one you want to uplift.
  3. Join campaigns advocating for trans inclusion: Right now, our friends at Gendered Intelligence have a helpful template letter you can use to write to your MP about the exclusionary draft Code of Practice. 

Join NION Women on the ground:

  1. NION Women will be attending the Together Alliance march in London on Saturday 28th March, marching in the Women’s Bloc alongside hundreds of other organisations. If you would like to join us to represent NION Women, please get in touch with us via our registration form. 
  2. Sign up to our newsletter and keep an eye on our social media for opportunities to join us at other one-the-ground events over the coming year.

Thank you again for all of your support, big and small. Together we can create a kinder, fairer and more inclusive world for all.
