Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have chosen Andy’s Man Club as my charity for this event because I want to raise funds for a charity for a cause that is close to my heart.

I am training and taking part in the Ultra MMA event raising money for charity. This is something I’ve never done before, I will be training hard to do my best in the competition to raise as much as I possibly can for my chosen charity….

ANDYSMANCLUB takes its name from Andrew Roberts, a man who sadly took his own life aged 23 in early 2016. Andy’s family had no inkling that he was suffering or struggling to the extent that he would do this, and as a result looked deeper into male suicide and men’s mental health. They soon discovered that male suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50, with male mental health surrounded by well-ingrained cultural stigma in the UK.

Elaine Roberts and Luke Ambler are Andy’s Mum and Brother-in-Law, together they came up with the idea of ANDYSMANCLUB, a group where men aged 18 and above can speak openly about their mental health in a judgment-free, non-clinical environment. Groups now operate nationwide and are completely volunteer-led, with the vast majority of group facilitators having first interacted with ANDYSMANCLUB when they came through the door as a service user.
