Flipping the script on the story of young men’s lives
Welcome to a world where resilience, empathy and self-respect reign supreme. Together we’re smashing stereotypes and reshaping the future of masculinities through long-term, evidence-based mentoring programs for 10-24 year olds.
Join us in this exciting journey as we champion mental wellbeing, break down barriers and empower the next generation of Top Blokes.

More than just an organisation, we’re mentors and allies, empowering young males to find their inner strength and lead with confidence.

Tailored support from within Australian communities
We’re deeply rooted in the communities we service, offering tailored, evidence-based programs for boys and young men aged 10-24.
Our approach is local, so we understand and can address community-specific needs so every young male we work with gets the tools he needs to thrive
Empowering healthy masculinities
We focus on fostering positive, healthy masculinities and breaking free from stereotypes.
Our programs are dedicated to empowering young males to find their unique strengths, embrace their true selves, and positively contribute to their communities.

`You said`…here`s just some of the feedback we received from our 10-13 Top Blokes recently. We spent a whole term talking about peer pressure, keeping mentally healthy, ways we can control our anger, positive masculinities and more. Seeing these responses makes us proud to do the work we do. And what really blows us away is the maturity of these responses from our 10 to 13 year olds. Well done Top Blokes! Respect 🤜

[Image three: The biggest lesson I took away is that you should be your own person and to not be afraid to show emotions in front of others.]

“We might act tough but behind closed doors there might be something else going on.” Oscar -Top Blokes grad.
Today is Mates Day – May 8. It’s a day to remember not to shut each other out but to lean in. Life gets busy, and we are all going through ups and downs. A simple check-in can make all the difference. Reach out to a mate today. Ask how they’re doing, how they are REALLY doing.
We all deserved to feel heard, supported, and valued.
Happy Mates Day Top Blokes!
