“A rising tide lifts all boats.”  John F Kennedy
We are the UK’s only national research organisation dedicated to addressing all issues affecting men and boys. The charity is independent of any political party or pressure group and takes a non–zero sum approach.
The problem

Too many boys and men in the UK are struggling – at school, at work, and in their families and communities.

Our aim is to create a more equitable society by identifying the economic, social and cultural hurdles faced by men and boys and then promote solutions that improve their wellbeing. Doing so will benefit everyone. If men and boys are failing it is hard for women and girls to flourish and vice versa. We all rise together.
