Mankind Initiative - Helping Men Escape Domestic Abuse

The ManKind Initiative was the first charity in Great Britain to support male victims of domestic abuse (registered in 2001). Since then, we have been at the forefront of providing services and support for male victims and campaigning to ensure that male victims receive the support they need from other organisations.Our aim is to ensure all male victims of domestic abuse (and their children) are supported to enable them to escape from the situation they are in. We are gender inclusive in our view so we want all female victims (and their children) to escape too.We provide a range of services directly to men such as an anonymous national helpline that any man, anywhere can call us. Our confidential helpline is available for male victims of domestic abuse and male victims of domestic violence across the UK.

We support men suffering from domestic abuse from their current or former wife or partner (including same-sex partner).

This can range from actual violence or object throwing to mental abuse such as constant bullying or constant insults.

The helpline provides both emotional support and practical information.

We receive calls from male victims of domestic abuse across all age ranges and professions:

• From dustmen and doctors, to, bankers and builders
• From men in their 20s to men in their 80s
• From men in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

The helplines welcomes calls from mothers, sisters and friends of male victims seeking information.

We also receive calls from support organisations, charities and statutory agencies such as local authorities and police forces.
