The Mankind Initiative is the principal, expert and specialist charity in the UK focussing on male victims of domestic abuse. It collaborates and works in close partnership with other organisations and practitioners to support these victims too.
It was the first in Great Britain to support male victims. Its expertise derives from directly supporting male victims since 2001, its qualified professionals who manage the charity and its board which also consists of the UK’s leading academics and survivors.
