About the From Boyhood to Manhood Foundation

The From Boyhood to Manhood Foundation was established in 1996 following concern within the community about the number of young black boys being excluded from school and becoming involved with gangs, drugs and violence. Based in Southwark and working across London boroughs, FBMF helps teachers deal with disruptive pupils to prevent exclusions. But for those who are excluded from school, it offers an alternative to dropping out of the education system and hanging out on the streets. Boys are referred to the FBMF Day Support Programme by local education authorities, special needs departments, youth offending teams and social services departments. FBMF promotes citizenship and self-development, and helps young people to get back on track through its day-programme of education.

We have a successful track record of delivering our core service, the Day Support Programme, and a range of projects targeted at young people. The From Boyhood to Manhood Foundation is particularly looking for individuals who will bring current relevant experience in Finance & Accounting; Fundraising & Government funding streams; Business Development; HRM &Employment Law and Marketing.

To apply, please email your current CV with a covering letter to the Business Manager at FBMF Lucretia@fbmf.co.ukstating your interest and what skills and experience you would bring to the management board.
