Support
As allies, we encourage you to research, follow, share, join, sign-up, advocate, learn, volunteer or donate to the community of organisations who represent, support and advocate for young people and trans and gender diverse communities.
While St Martins and Minus18 are the organisations creating and producing Escape Velocity, we are only a fraction of a wider community of organisations that supports LGBTIQ+ people.
Follow Escape Velocity social media to experience our films and performances, and to see more resources and ways to support — many created or provided by the organisations below.
If you are trans or gender diverse, questioning or unsure, these organisations are an excellent resource for you.
