Ongoing Support

The MAN&BOY programme wants to establish strong and positive relationships between boys and a significant adult male in their lives. The Adventure Camp weekends and 3-week relationship building activity courses are a great way to do this however, the MAN&BOY team realise that participants may want some ongoing support to help maintain their relationships.

 

Reunion Events

From time to time MAN&BOY invite all past participants to meet up for the day to renew friendships and have some fun. This could be a trip to the local outdoor activity centre or games in the local park.

 

Dads, Lads & Lasses

Join past participants and other families at the annual Dads, Lads & Lasses camp. Held over a weekend in June, dads can bring ALL their children for a camping weekend packed with fun.

 

Listening Ear

Some of the men attending the MAN&BOY programme may appreciate some ongoing support. For this reason we offer to meet up and act as a listening ear.

 

Young Leader Pilot

We have recently piloted a scheme whereby a young person previously open to the programme, who wishes to learn further skills and take on some responsibility has been taken on as a volunteer young leader by MAN&BOY.  The idea is that the young person is mentored short-term by one of the MAN&BOY team and works as a volunteer on either our Relationship Building Courses or Reunion Events.  If you think your boy could benefit from this, he must be over 14, have taken part previously in MAN&BOY and agreeable to the MAN&BOY vision, aims, values and policies.  To enquire about the future development of this scheme email

This experience has been incredible for him and has strengthened our family dynamic. It has helped him feel more secure in his relationships with both of us. Additionally, as separated parents, we had the opportunity to openly discuss concerns at the camp, which improved our communication and understanding. Thank you for making such a difference." "Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
