Men Only IOW and our Women Only project exist for one purpose: to offer a safe, steady place to turn when life becomes overwhelming.

​

We are a non-profit, non-corporate organisation and entirely dependent on the community we serve.

There is no central funding behind us, even though statutory services — NHS teams, Jobcentre advisers, GP surgeries and both town and Island-wide councils — regularly refer people to us. We value that trust, but it also means something important: we stand on our own.

​

The only reason our doors are open today is that some of our community choose to keep them open.

If you value having a place on the Isle of Wight where men and women can find warmth, support and connection when they need it most, a monthly subscription is the most effective way to protect it. It gives us the stability to plan, to support people properly and to stay here for the long haul.

​

There are no perks, discounts or merchandise attached.

What you get is the knowledge that your contribution directly keeps these services running for husbands, partners, mums, dads, daughters, sons, brothers, sisters, friends and neighbours — including the person who may walk through our door tomorrow.

Your support isn’t an add-on. It’s the foundation that allows this work to happen at all.

Thank you for helping keep this place alive.
