We’ve always been here
Trans+ History Week CIC is a Trans+ led nonprofit, social enterprise that exists to popularise the global awareness week: Trans+ History Week, 4–10 May 2026 — anchored by Trans+ History Day on 6 May – the anniversary of the 1933 Nazi raid on the world’s first Trans+ clinic in Berlin, Germany.
It is a week-long reflective period to learn and celebrate the momentous and millennia-old history of transgender, non-binary, gender-diverse and Intersex people.
Our organisation commissions content and hosts events and exhibitions that reflect on history and surface learnings for our present to secure a better future. Trans+ History Week has raised over £100,000 and, along with QueerAF, invested in over 100 Trans+ creatives: writers, illustrators, audio producers, musicians, photographers, speakers, journalists, poets and comedians.
Trans+ History Week itself was originally incubated as a QueerAF launchpad project.
