What we do

HRT Source Testing

We organise laboratory testing of HRT sources commonly used by trans people who are self-medicating.

Peer Support Network

We facilitate a network of peer support volunteers, who share their experiences of self-medicating and how they do things as safely as possible. We also are aware of some support groups in Ireland and Scotland specifically for self-medicating people, if you know of more - please let us know!

Get Injection Supplies

Need safe and sterile injecting supplies? Learn how to access them for free.

Healthcare Fund

We operate a healthcare fund to cover costs associated with self-medicating for trans people in Ireland and Scotland, such as paying for GP visits, blood tests and long-term injecting supplies.

We do not cover costs associated with accessing HRT through private healthcare providers such as GenderGP.

Irish GP Action Project

We are partnered with Transgress the NGS on a project to understand and improve gender-affirming healthcare provided by General Practitioners to trans patients in Ireland. And we need your help!
