Man&boy

MAN & BOY recognises that all children, regardless of age or gender can benefit hugely from the positive, on-going involvement of a significant adult male in their lives, and research has shown that this involvement has proven benefits. These improvements include - educational attainment, increased self-esteem, better health outcomes as well as improved behaviour are all identified as potential positive outcomes. MAN & BOY currently concentrates on supporting boys aged between 9 to 12 (school years 5, 6, 7 and 8) as we believe that this transition from junior to secondary school is particularly important in a boy’s life and that a supportive, encouraging male role model can make a huge difference to their self-esteem.
