Where the money goes
Four pillars, one mission
Every pound is allocated across four programmes with independent trustee oversight.
Youth mentoring
1:1 and small-group mentoring for boys 12–18 across schools, sports clubs and youth centres.
Emergency support
Same-week grants for brothers facing crisis — housing, mental health, single-father hardship.
Community grants
Seed funding for grassroots men's groups run by and for local men.
