ANDYSMANCLUB
ANDYSMANCLUB, named after Andrew Roberts, who tragically took his own life at 23 in 2016, was founded by his mum Elaine Roberts and brother-in-law Luke Ambler. Recognising the stigma around male mental health, they created a safe, non-clinical space for men aged 18+ to talk openly about their struggles. Now a nationwide, volunteer-led initiative, it supports over 1,000 men weekly with more than 200 volunteers, many of whom were once service users themselves.

Our work in suicide prevention
ANDYSMANCLUB facilitates peer to peer support groups in non-judgemental safe spaces across the UK for any man over 18 to attend. Men can come together with like minded men to chat about anything they would like to get off of their chest. These run every Monday 7pm except bank holidays. We currently have over 60 locations.
We have no referral or signing in process. There is no pressure to talk, men can come along, grab a brew and listen.
In addition to out support groups we established the viral #ITSOKAYTOTALK campaign, we campaign to reduce stigmas surrounding suicide.

Our current priorities
To reduce male suicide and combat the stigma surrounding men and help seeking. To normalise conversations and get everyone talking.
