Partner with O5BM: Turning Health Equity into Measurable Impact

Older Black men remain one of the UK’s most overlooked groups in health, wellbeing, and community systems.
 
The Over 50s Black Men Forum (O5BM) exists to change that — by building trusted, community-led solutions that reduce isolation, improve health outcomes, and strengthen social cohesion.

We run practical programmes that support older Black men to live healthier, more connected, and more resilient lives, including:

  • Health & wellbeing workshops (prevention-focused and culturally competent)
  • Peer support and mentoring to reduce loneliness and improve confidence
  • Skills, employability and financial resilience sessions for later-life stability
  • Community leadership and intergenerational mentoring

Partnering with O5BM is not charity — it is a strategic investment in stronger communities.
It helps your organisation deliver against:

  • ESG / CSR and Social Value commitments
  • Health equity and inclusion priorities
  • Community credibility and trust
  • Staff volunteering and leadership development
  • Impact reporting with real outcomes and stories
  • 1,300+ members engaged
  • Hundreds of hours delivered in mentoring, wellbeing, and community activity
  • Community insight and evidence, including our 2024 survey work

We offer flexible partnership options, including:

  • Sponsorship of programmes and events
  • Co-designed projects with measurable outcomes
  • Employee volunteering and skills-based support
  • In-kind contributions (venue, equipment, professional services)

If your organisation is serious about inclusion, wellbeing, and measurable social impact, we would welcome a conversation.
