GMA is part of the Sex and Gender Diverse Health Outcomes Working Group (SGDWG) – alongside a number of DHB healthcare providers and clinicians, as well as trans and intersex people working in this area.
The SGDWG works across Capital and Coast District Health Board (Wellington and Kapiti region) to develop appropriate, well-resourced, and equitable gender affirming healthcare.
The SGDWG is holding it’s second annual community event, with a panel discussion/panel presentations explaining what services are now available and how you can access them, as well as plans for the near future.
There will also be an opportunity to ask questions and give feedback.
This will be held on on Tuesday 10th of November at 5.30pm, at the the Newtown Community and Cultural Centre on the corner of Colombo and Rintoul Streets in Newtown.
The Newtown Community and Cultural Centre is mobility accessible, and there will be kai and drinks provided.
This year we’re kicking off Transgender Awareness Week with a film screening fundraiser!

Rams (2020) In remote Western Australia, two estranged brothers, Colin (Sam Neill) and Les (Michael Caton), are at war. Raising separate flocks of sheep descended from their family’s prized bloodline, the two men work side by side yet are worlds apart. When Les’ prize ram is diagnosed with a rare and lethal illness, authorities order a purge of every sheep in the valley. While Colin attempts to stealthily outwit the powers that be, Les opts for angry defiance. But can the warring brothers set aside their differences and have a chance to reunite their family, save their herd, and bring their community back together?
Help us raise funds for binders
We run a national free binder programme, to provide binders to those who are unable to afford to purchase one for themselves. These binders significantly improve quality of life. We are raising funds to cover 365 binders a year at a total cost of $15,000 – we are so grateful for your support!
Binders Keepers! Poetry, music, and a good time, Oct 10th 2020, 1pm – 6pm at the wonderful and mobility accessible Newtown Community and Cultural Centre! Entry by donation – $5 to $10 – help us raise the $15,000 we need each year to provide binders to people in desperate need all over NZ. Party with us and make a difference 😀
