Stand behind men's
mental health in Luton
X-4RCE is a grassroots men's mental health organisation working across Luton and Bedfordshire. Sponsorship from local businesses helps us keep support free, informal and available before men reach crisis point.
Who you would
be backing
X-4RCE CIC supports men across Luton and Bedfordshire through weekly peer support groups, 1:1 conversations, Body and Mind wellbeing sessions, outreach and signposting. We are community led and built around lived experience.
Men are far less likely to seek help through formal routes, and far more likely to talk in an informal room with a cup of tea in their hand. That is the gap we work in. Everything we run is free to attend, with no referral and no waiting list.
We are already funded by The National Lottery Community Fund, Luton Rising and the Arnold Clark Community Fund. Sponsorship is what lets us go further than grant cycles allow.

| Strategic Partner | £5,000+ | Core delivery, growth, Men’s Hub development and long term sustainability | Prominent recognition across website, campaigns, printed materials, banners and events, plus workshops, training and talks |
Amounts are a guide, not a price list. If you want to support us at a different level, or in kind rather than in cash, we would still like to hear from you.
What partnership gives you
Visible local credibility
Your customers see you supporting men in your own town, not a distant national cause.
Something real to tell your team
Men's mental health affects your workforce. Backing X-4RCE gives you a genuine story to tell internally, not just a logo on a website.
A relationship, not a transaction
We are a small local organisation. You will deal with the people running the sessions, and you will hear how your money was spent.
Evidence for your own reporting
We will provide an update showing what your support made possible, which you are free to use in your own social value or community reporting.
