About Spirit Level
Spirit level has been operating in Liverpool since July 2004. It remains a small, unconstituted social group but is keen to welcome new members. The prime objective of the group is to give peer support to anyone who is finding difficulties in dealing with their confusion over gender identity or their ability to express themselves in their preferred gender role in a safe and non-judgemental environment.
We are also happy to see family members, partners or carers accompany members to meetings
