2025 Charity Partner
Meet Andy's Man Club
Yorkshire has decided who will be supporting in 2025 and we're delighted to announce that our 2025 Charity Partner will be Andy's Man Club. A men’s suicide prevention charity, ending the stigma surrounding men’s mental health and helping men through the power of conversation. #ITSOKAYTOTALK.
We have one aim, to help one guy, to save one life.
ANDYSMANCLUB takes its name from Andrew Roberts, a man who sadly took his own life aged 23 in early 2016. Andy was a lovely and doting father, son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend, and was just 23 years old when he was taken away by suicide, sadly and tragically without warning.
On average one man every two hours takes his life in the UK. It’s often said to be a factor is that men don’t talk. That’s why ANDYSMANCLUB was born. Established in 2016 by Luke Ambler, Andy’s brother-in-law, the aim of the club is to break down these stigmas, support men struggling, and lend a hand to suicide prevention.
That change starts with you...
