ANDYSMANCLUB
August
ANDYSMANCLUB aims to break down the stigma of men’s mental health.
On average, every two hours a man in the UK takes his own life. ANDYSMANCLUB works to break down stigmas around mental health, support men struggling, and lend a hand to suicide prevention.
They run peer-to-peer support groups for men aged 18+ going through storms in their lives. The clubs are held every Monday at 7 pm (excluding bank holidays).
Clubs are free to attend with no registration required.
The group was founded after the death by suicide of Andy Roberts. Andy gave no indication to his family that he was suicidal, as a result, his brother-in-law, Luke Ambler, and mother, Elaine Roberts, founded ANDYSMANCLUB in the hope that men who struggled to open up had a safe space to do so.
The first ANDYSMANCLUB session ran in Halifax in 2016, with 9 men in attendance on the night. The groups follow the same model they did on the first night and are now available in hundreds of locations nationwide, stretching from Plymouth to Aberdeen. Following on from the COVID-19 pandemic, ANDYSMANCLUB created an online function via Google Meet. This follows the same model and enables men who cannot leave their home due to a variety of issues to join sessions. In the long-term, the charity aims to have a location within 30 minutes travel of any man in the UK.
