Gender Identity Research and Education Society

GIRES is a UK wide organisation dedicated to improving the lives of trans and gender diverse people of all ages, including those who are non-binary and non-gender.

It is a volunteer operated membership charity that, in collaboration with the other groups in its field, hears, helps, empowers and gives a voice to trans and gender diverse individuals, including those who are non-binary and non-gender, as well as their families.

The organisation uses evidence from individuals’ lived experiences, combined with scientific research into gender identity development, to educate all those who are able to improve trans and gender diverse individuals’ wellbeing. It also contributes to policy development regarding equality and human rights for individuals, especially in healthcare.
