The fund is intended to support projects that improve the physical, mental and social wellbeing of men and boys aged 16 and over, with a particular focus on those living in disadvantaged communities or experiencing the poorest health outcomes.
This funding aims to support organisations working with men who are underserved or disengaged from traditional services, delivering support in trusted community settings, addressing the wider social determinants of health such as housing, employment and debt, and building a stronger evidence base around what works in improving men's health. This funding opportunity consists of the following three funds which have different levels of grants.
This funding is particularly relevant for organisations that have established trusted relationships and meaningful connections with specific communities of men and are embedded within those communities. Have specific expertise in designing and delivering work for men, rather than general community provision, and use insight, evidence, practitioner knowledge and lived experience to shape and improve their work, including learning from previous delivery and engagement with the communities they serve.
