A Hollyoaks actress who plays a trans character will unveil an innovative trans support centre.

Located in Hull, GenderShift will be opened at 2.00pm on Sunday by actress Victoria Atkin, who plays 15-year-old Jasmine/Jason Costello in the soap.

Organisers believe it will be the UK's first support centre exclusively for people facing gender identity and sexual orientation issues.
