How We Work

We work to promote change through celebrating the positive and offering a creative approach to the challenges faced by men. We recognise that each individual has experiences that can be of immense value to both themselves and others and are committed to working together to share our knowledge.

We support the needs of Men, Women, Children and Young People through: –

  • Providing workshops for both the public and service providers allowing an in depth exploration of these issues and an opportunity for people to share experiences. Our workshops cover a variety of topics, including family dynamics and relationships, and are open to both men and women.
  • Offering training and conference facilitation to service providers, allowing organisations to explore how their services could be more inclusive of the needs of men and fathers.
  • Organising networking events which help organisations to gain support from one another and share best practice.
  • Conducting research on the issues faced by men, in particular fathers, and distributing this research to the public.
