Andys mens group

Hergé

I've come to realise that I need to find a friend or some other outlet, I've become increasingly isolated since my son has gone to university. 

Has anyone had any experience of Andys' mens club or something similar?

  • Yes, I've been to a few 'Andy's Man Club' evenings. Hopefully you'll feel welcome. In my experience the guys listen respectfully and offer support, and it's nice to listen and offer support in turn. The format is always the same, which is handy to get used to, though sometimes it finishes early. The times I've been, some guys freely state that they are neurodivergent - usually ASD or ADHD - and it has a fairly inclusive feel. And if guys aren't neurodivergent, they usually struggle with mental health in a way which encourages inclusion.
