MensCraft is the leading organisation in East Anglia with an exclusive focus on men's health and wellbeing. Founded in 2010, we set up the Norwich Mens Shed: one of the UK’s first. By 2020, we’d changed from a Community Interest Company (CIC) to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). We’ve expanded from a handful of volunteers to a team working across the region, a central management team based in Norwich, supported by a Board of Trustees. Our funding derives from local and national trusts, local health and statutory organisations, and private donations.
