About this event

This Introduction to Voice and Communication Therapy workshop is being led by Cerys Mabe (she/they) a Speech and Language Therapist from NHS Lothian who works with trans and non-binary people on their voice and communication goals.

The workshop will provide background information about how our voices work, how voice change is achieved, and how to keep our voices healthy. There will be an opportunity to use our voices in a vocal warmup and an introduction to exploring different characteristics of voice.

Who: This workshop is particularly aimed at trans and non-binary people who are waiting to begin a course of Voice and Communication Therapy sessions, but it is suitable for anyone who is considering gender-affirming voice change who would like to know more.

When: Saturday, 26th September 2026, 2pm-4:30pm.

Where: LGBT Health and Wellbeing in Edinburgh. The venue is fully accessible, with ramp access, lift and accessible gender-neutral toilets.
