abandofbrothers (ABOB) is a charity established by men committed to positive social change through personal development and community building. ABOB provides a unique rites-of-passage mentoring programme to young men (18-24) involved with, or at risk of becoming involved with, the Criminal Justice System. The programme is delivered by trained older male volunteers from their own local communities. The young men are given the support they need to enable a life free of crime and full of meaning, purpose and connection. Through connection with the ABOB community they are also provided with practical support to access professional services, training and work experience. By bringing generations of men together to collaborate in a meaningful and common purpose, ABOB acts as a catalyst for creating social capital and mobility at a local level. We are recruiting mentors and leaders. Please get in touch to find out more.
