CHRISTIAN GROUPS WELCOMING TRANS-PEOPLE

A number of members of Manchester Concord attend the Communion services detailed below so any Concord member who decides to go along is likely to find familiar faces to welcome them. Indeed the two organists who share the playing duties are both members of Concord and there often several other trans-people attending.

Services are normally held on the first Saturday of every month at 5:30 pm and follow a style very similar to that found in "middle of the road" Anglican parishes everywhere. The host parish of St Chrysostom is a welcoming inclusive place and these services are supported by the Bishop of Manchester's Advisory Group on Sexuality and by the diocese as a whole. The church is at 4A Anson Road, Victoria Park, Manchester, M14 5BG.

There is a new website giving the latest information and it is found at www.lgbtcommunion.org.uk and that shows any minor variations to the normal pattern of services and also has a contact button to reach Ian Gomersall, the parish priest.
There is also a Yahoo Group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LGBTCommunion for those connected with these services to exchange ideas amongst themselves.

LEEDS FIRST FRIDAY EVENT

Leeds First Friday in the Month – T-girl Event

Yes after a break for Christmas and the New Year ......... Its Back !!!!
(Yabba Dabba Dooooo !!!)

This is now probably the biggest monthly T-Girl night out North of the River Trent.

This Event was once again a HUGE success in December - with 70-80 Girls + Partners, Admirers and friends’ attenting from all over the UK.

The venue is BLAYDS YARD.

Blayds Yard is located in the centre of the gay area (Pink Triangle) on Lower Briggate in Leeds. There are many Trans friendly bars and clubs located very close by.

The new venue offers the following facilities:

• Discreet location – just off Lower Briggate about 100 metres below the Viaduct Show bar.
• TV – friendly with a great atmosphere
• All very welcome
• Separate bar and dance area (upstairs)
• Free entry – no cover charges – reasonably priced drinks
• Usually up to about 80 t-girls and friends – with many attending from outside the area
• Special Discounts available at a nearby hotel – which is about a 50 yards totter from Blayds Yard in high heels.
• There is parking available at the nearby NCP car park on Boar Lane (entrance on Swinegate) and street parking in Leeds is free from 6.00pm onwards

So come along meet people - make new friends and enjoy yourselves

The event usually starts at about 9.00 pm and afterwards many of the girls go off to many of the other “watering holes” such as Fibre, the Viaduct, Queens Court, the Bridge, Xibit, and the New Penny.

The Event continues to go from strength to strength - so here is a BIG Thank You to everyone who supports LFF and also to those who promote the event here on Chix.

(This is a Social Event and is a meeting place for T-girls + their partners + Admirers and friends - it is TOTALLY FREE and none moneymaking Event.)

If you would like to receive any more information (and details about the local hotel special discounts) then please drop me a line/message here on Tvchix – Love Mandymakeup
