Men's Health Community Fund - Movember Funding Stream

Movember is offering up to 15 grants of between £150,000 and £300,000 for community programmes supporting young men aged 16 to 35.

Grants can fund projects running up to three years. This is part of a £6.3 million national initiative. The deadline to apply is 15 July 2026.

This grant is for community and voluntary sector organisations in England that already work with men and boys. You must be incorporated or constituted and have at least three unrelated trustees or directors. It is not for clinical services, statutory bodies, or organisations without an existing track record working with men.
