The vision of Working With Men is that all boys and men can be productive and active members of society and that organisations work in ways that include and support bouts and men, particularly this who are socially or economically disadvantaged or excluded. Our mission is to reduce significantly the number of boys and men who are unable to realise their full potential and to enable them to be productive and active members of society.
To this end, we deliver programmes of education and support directly to boys, young men and men in schools, in the community, in hospitals and youth clubs, raise awareness, work to advocate on behalf of fathers, share and encourage the latest good practice, work with other charities and provide health information and advice to boys and men through our website, and our Expectant Fathers Booklets.
When doing this, we process personal data about people who receive advice or information from us – or provide us with support through campaigns, donations, purchasing our publications and products, booking on training courses, or volunteering.
We are committed to protecting your privacy and take this responsibility very seriously. We therefore take care to safeguard it. This notice outlines what data we collect, how we may use it, how we protect your data and your rights, and how you can exercise those rights.
