❓MAYBE I'LL GO... NEXT WEEK❓

✌️Andy's Man Club takes 2 hours on a Monday evening.

👟You've got to find the motivation to put your shoes back on.

🏃You've got to get yourself to the venue

🦥Can't be bothered... Maybe I'll go next week?

🧮 That 2 hours is 4 percent of your week.

📈But it makes the other 96 percent so much better!

The Founders of our charity, Andy's mum Elaine Roberts and brother-in-law Luke Ambler last night were given a "Pride of Britain" award!
Recognition of their tireless work for the past decade to provide men with a safe space to talk and support each other so that families might not experience the same grief that they did.

From Loss - Hope!

Luke and Elaine continue to be very hands on with what still very much feels like a family based charity.

This charity saved my life!!

Thanks Luke and Elaine for all you have given and continue to give

If you've been thinking about coming... Make this week your week.

The strength of the circle is that nobody has to be the strong one all the time.

You can arrive carrying more than you know how to say and find men willing to sit beside you while you find the words.

When the ball reaches your hands, you have the space to say what you’ve carried alone for years… but only when you feel ready. There is no pressure to talk. Just pass the ball on if you are not ready, no questions asked!

Somewhere in that circle, another man realises he isn’t the only one.

You might be holding the ball but you’re no longer holding everything on your own.

That’s ANDYSMANCLUB.

Today is World Mental Health Day, and it’s fair to say mine has taken a battering over the past few years.

A smile and a bit of banter can hide a lot.

I’m still full of bruises from some of those battles. Some may never heal. Some days things feel lighter, other days they still hurt. But I keep looking for rainbows (so gay 😜) in every storm I battle.

Talking has helped me through some of the tough days. Andy’s Man Club has given me somewhere I can turn up as I am, without having to pretend everything’s fine. I’m grateful for that, and for the people who’ve stood by me.

I’m still finding my way, but I’m here, and there’s still plenty of good worth looking for.

Check in on your pals, even the ones who always make you laugh. Sometimes the person cheering everyone else up could do with someone asking how they’re really doing.


And maybe, like so many of us guys who use Andy's Man Club, you’ll realise you don’t have to battle everything on your own.

❓WHY DO I GO TO ANDYS MAN CLUB❓

👌I first attended Andy's because I was going through a deep personal trauma. I was literally on the edge and felt I had nowhere else to turn.

👌I was very nervous. What if I know someone. What if my problems are less serious than someone else. What if my problems are too heavy to share.
What if... What if... What if

👌I felt better within seconds of arriving. I could just tell that all the other guys got it. The weren't professionals, they were just guys who had lived through storms themselves. They let me know I was 100 percent in the right place

👌Week by week I opened up more. I told my story and had the privilege of hearing other guys stories too. It made me realise I wasn't alone and that it was okay to talk about this stuff.

👌After a few weeks I was feeling much better. Nobody fixed me. Nobody diagnosed me or therapised me. They just listened. Supported. Made me feel seen and valued.

👌Now I attend every week because it is like a reset to each week.

👌It helps level out the rollercoaster of life

👌I come to support other guys through their progress

👌I come because I have genuinely made some amazing friends here

👌I come because the sessions, the coffee and the biscuits are all completely free (gotta be honest)

👌BUT MOST OF ALL... I come because I feel it helps me be a better version of me. I'm still not perfect but I've learned I don't need to be.

👌Don't believe me? Just ask my beautiful family who supported me attending and who are all now advocates for Andy's Man Club and the huge lift it gives the guys who attend!

👌IF YOU’RE STRUGGLING, REMEMBER — WE’RE HERE. 👌

We’ve just celebrated one year of Andy’s Man Club Loanhead, and we want you to join us!

We’re more than just a group that meets on a Monday night.

We’re friends. We’re a team. We’re normal guys fighting together.

Fighting loneliness, depression, stress, grief, relationship problems, work pressures and all the other things that life can throw at us.

There are no experts sitting in the room telling you how to live your life. We’re just a group of ordinary men who want to give something back to a club that has helped us too.

Because we’ve been in your shoes.

We’ve had the nights where we’ve struggled. We’ve wondered who we could talk to, where we could turn, or whether anyone would actually understand.

That’s why our door is open.

You don’t need to have the right words.
You don’t need to tell your whole story.
You don’t even need to talk if you’re not ready.

Just come through the door.

Maybe this Monday at 7pm will be your first Monday with us.

And maybe, like so many of us have discovered over this first year, you’ll realise you don’t have to battle everything on your own.
