The Manx Family Community Association (MFCA) plays an active role in promoting sustainability, cultural heritage, and community wellbeing across the Isle of Man.
Through engagement with diverse sectors of the Manx community, particularly younger generations, MFCA organises events and produces educational materials to highlight the importance of protecting and valuing the Island’s natural environment.
The association is ideally placed to promote and explain Manx cultural heritage. Working closely with the wider community and like-minded organisations, MFCA has hosted events celebrating Manx traditions, including promoting the Manx language and collaborating with Manx National Heritage.
Environmental impact is addressed through partnerships with off-island environmental charities and commercial relationships focused on plastic reduction and maritime projects. MFCA shares this knowledge with members and the wider community. The association is also working with the Adaptive Classrooms team on a pilot study at Jubilee School, incorporating sustainable furniture and concepts into learning spaces, including designs for MFCA’s own centre.
Community engagement is central to MFCA’s mission. The organisation hosts seminars with other charities to foster collaboration and mutual support, addressing initiatives such as mental health, island wellbeing, and learning through play.
